How long should I cook a pork steak?
Pork steak should be cooked for approximately 6 to 7 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the steaks, in a heavy-bottomed or non-stick frying pan that has been heated to about medium heat. Oil the steak on both sides, rub it in, and season with salt, pepper, and whatever else you like.
