Based on 180 g (6 oz) boneless loin chops. Not including rice.

Per 1 serving (350 g / 12 oz)

523 calories, 827 mg sodium

You can reduce calories to 332 by using smaller 100 g (3 oz) pork chops.

Most of the sodium (about 700 mg of it) comes from the soy sauce; you may be able to find a lighter one.
