Recipe View Carefully lower the breaded pork skewers into the hot oil in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3 minutes per side.

Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil. (20 minutes)

Recipe View Carefully transfer the baking dish into the preheated oven and bake for 20 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes to allow the crumb coating to dry out and become even more crisp. (30 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider marinating the pork cubes in your favorite marinade for at least 30 minutes before skewering.
Ensure the oil temperature remains consistent at 350°F (175°C) for optimal frying results.
If you prefer a lighter flavor, you can skip the double dipping in the egg and breadcrumb mixture.
Feel free to experiment with different seasonings in the breadcrumb mixture, such as garlic powder, onion powder, or paprika.
Serve with your favorite dipping sauces, such as BBQ sauce, honey mustard, or ranch dressing.

    This recipe brought back so many childhood memories! My family devoured it.

  • Willow Ebert

    I used an air fryer instead of deep-frying and it came out great. It was a bit drier but still delicious.

  • Marian Johnson

    I added a pinch of garlic powder to the bread crumbs, and it was a game-changer!

  • Leon Volkman

    Baking the skewers after frying is a brilliant idea. It ensures the pork is cooked perfectly.

  • Agustina Williamson

    The tip about marinating the pork beforehand is excellent. Added so much flavor!

    My kids think it's actual fried chicken! This is going into our regular rotation.

  • Dorcas Huel

    The double-dipping in the egg and bread crumbs is key to getting that perfect crispy crust.
