Gather @pork chop{4}, @fresh cilantro{0.5%bunch}, @black pepper{1.5%tsp} and @vegetable oil{3%tbsp}.

Pound the pork chops between plastic wrap to an even thickness, about 1 cm, so they cook through quickly and evenly.

Pound or finely mince the @garlic{8%clove}, cilantro and cracked pepper together into a coarse, fragrant paste.

Rub the paste over the chops with the @fish sauce{2%tbsp} and @sugar{1%tsp}, and marinate at least 20 minutes. ~{20%minutes}

Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the chops 4–5 minutes per side, until deeply golden and cooked through. ~{9%minutes}

Rest the chops 3 minutes before slicing. ~{3%minutes}

Scrape any browned garlic bits loose from the pan and spoon them over the sliced pork.

Serve with @jasmine rice{300%g}, @cucumber{1} slices and @lime{1} wedges.
