Pork chops are marinated for just a short time, then deep fried for a crispy juicy result. My mother is famous for this recipe! It sounds like a weird combo of flavors but it is ohhhh so good! You can also bake them if you do not have a deep-fryer, but you won't get the same crunchiness.

Recipe Instructions
Step 1
Heat oil in a deep-fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).
Step 2
In a shallow dish, stir together the garlic, cinnamon and soy sauce. Place the pork chops in the mixture, and marinate for 10 to 15 minutes.
Step 3
Fry pork chops in the hot oil until the juices run clear and they are crispy on the outside. This will only take about 2 minutes.
