Step 1
Pat pork dry with paper towels. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
Step 2
Whisk egg in a shallow bowl. Spread panko on a plate. Coat each cutlet in egg, then dredge in panko, pressing gently.
Step 3
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.
Step 4
Sear each pork cutlet 2 minutes per side without moving. Crust should be golden brown; center should feel firm.
Step 5
Divide warm rice between two bowls. Top with pork cutlet and drizzle tonkatsu sauce generously over top.
Step 6
Spoon pickled vegetables alongside. Serve immediately.
