Once the onions are sauteed add the scallions and chili pepper. Saute the scallions and chili pepper for 2 more minutes.
Season the mixture with garlic powder, ground black pepper, and soy sauce. Stir and cook for 1 minute.
Add half of the chicharron and mayonnaise then mix well and remove the pan from the heat.

You have the option to use leftover chicharron as a topping and then serve it.
