Using the same skillet and vegetable oil, add the garlic. Saute for 1 to 2 minutes till garlic is brown. Add the pork slices. Pan sear the pork on each side for 5 to 6 minutes till cooked completely. In a small bowl, combine the calamansi juice, soy sauce and organic broth. Pour this liquids into the skillet while the pork is simmering. Season with salt and black pepper powder. Continue cooking for 5 to 6 minutes till sauce boils and the pork is completely cooked. Return the onion rings on top of the pork slices for garnish. Serve with boiled rice.
