Ingredients:
| Ingredients | Quantity |
|---|---|
| Boneless pork, cut into cubes | 2 pounds |
| Salt and pepper | To taste |
| Seasoned salt | To taste |
| Eggs | 4 |
| Milk | 3 tablespoons |
| Italian seasoned bread crumbs | 2 cups |
| Water | 2 cups |
| Vegetable oil, for frying | 2 cups |
1. Skewering the Goodness
- Thread 2 to 3 pork cubes onto the skewers.
- Sprinkle salt, pepper, and seasoned salt on all sides of the pork cubes.
- Set the skewers aside for the flavors to meld.
2. Creating the Coating
- In a shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk.
- In a separate shallow bowl, pour in the Italian seasoned bread crumbs.
- Set a wire rack in a (9×13-inch) baking dish and pour water into the dish, making sure it doesn’t touch the wire rack.
3. Prepping for Frying
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Preheat vegetable oil in a deep-fryer or large, heavy-bottom saucepan to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
4. Coating the Skewers
- Dip the skewers into the egg mixture, ensuring each skewer is thoroughly coated.
- Then, dip them in the seasoned bread crumbs, repeating the step for a double coating.
5. Frying to Perfection
- Gently lay the skewers into the preheated deep-fryer.
- Cook until golden brown, approximately 3 minutes per side.
6. Finishing Touches in the Oven
- Place the cooked skewers on the wire rack.
- Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake for 20 minutes, or until the pork is no longer pink in the center.
- Remove the foil and bake for an additional 10 minutes to crisp up the crumb coating.
