Easy Garlic Ginger Glazed Sticky Pork Food

ONE PAN SWEET GINGER GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and place a large oven-safe skillet on the stovetop over medium-high heat.
• Season the pork tenderloins with salt and pepper on all sides.
• Add the olive oil to the skillet and once it's heated add the pork, searing it on all sides.
• While the pork is browning, add the garlic, thyme, mustard, ginger, brown sugar and soy sauce to a small bowl, whisking together to combine.
• Once the pork has browned on all sides, drizzle the glaze over the pork tenderloins and brush on all sides.
• Let the remaining glaze flow into the bottom of the skillet and place the skillet in the oven for about 10 minutes or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches about 150 degrees Fahrenheit (use a meat thermometer for this!).
• Once the pork reaches 150 degrees Fahrenheit, remove the skillet from the oven and baste the pork with the glaze in the bottom of the pan before covering lightly with aluminum foil and resting for 5-6 minutes.
• Slice the pork after it has rested and serve with the remaining glaze.

GINGER GARLIC PORK WITH SIZZLING RICE

Steps:

• To make Da Sizzling Rice: Add rice and water to a small saucepot and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat to low, cover and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit 30 minutes. Transfer the rice to a baking sheet and cool to room temperature. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F. Put the rice into the oven and let it dry out for 1 hour.
• Heat 2 cups of oil to 350 degrees F. in a heavy-bottomed pan over medium heat. Cut the rice into 3-inch rounds and fry in the oil until crunchy and light brown, about 2 minutes. Set aside on a plate.
• To make Da Pork: Cut the pork into 3/4-inch rounds. Stir the soy sauce, mustard, and rice wine vinegar in a large bowl. Add the pork and let marinate for15 minutes. In a shallow bowl, mix the flour, cornstarch, garlic, onion, salt, and pepper. Lightly press down on the pork to flatten and dredge in the flour mixture. Heat the oil in medium saute pan, add the pork and cook until lightly browned on both sides.
• To make Da Gravy: In a medium sauce pot, over medium heat, add the oil. When the oil is hot, add the onions, ginger, garlic, and pepper, and saute until the onions are translucent. Deglaze the pan with wine, and then add 2 cups of water, the stock, soy sauce and honey. Simmer for 1 hour or until reduced by half. Strain the gravy and return it to the pot over low heat. Combine the 4 tablespoons water and cornstarch in a small bowl. Slowly stir it into the sauce and cook until the gravy has thickened.
• For Da Plate up: Transfer the rice to a serving platter, and arrange the pork on the platter. Top with the gravy and garnish with the green onions.

STICKY-SWEET GRILLED PORK SHOULDER WITH HOISIN AND MOLASSES

Steps:

• Pork:
• Purée garlic, ginger, hoisin sauce, fish sauce, honey, wine, chili oil, oyster sauce, and sesame oil in a blender until very smooth. Place 1 1/2 cups in a small bowl for glaze; cover and chill until ready to use. Pour remaining marinade into a 2-gal. resealable plastic bag.
• Place pork shoulder, fat side down, on a cutting board with a short end facing you. Holding a long sharp knife about 1"-1 1/2" above cutting board, make a shallow cut along the entire length of a long side of shoulder. Continue cutting deeper into meat, lifting and unfurling with your free hand, until it lies flat (it's better to end up with 2-3 even pieces than 1 uneven piece). Add to bag with marinade and seal, pressing out air. Work pork around inside bag to coat with marinade. Chill at least 8 hours and up to 1 day.
• Prepare a Big Green Egg for medium heat (with cover closed, thermometer should register 350°F). Remove pork from marinade, letting excess drip off. Lightly season all over with salt. Fit grill with convection plate and set pork on top. (If you don't have a convection plate, bank coals on one side and set pork over cooler area to avoid flare-ups.) Cover and roast pork until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 140°F-145°F. (You can also do initial cooking in a 350°F oven.) Transfer to a cutting board and let rest at least 20 minutes.
• Glaze and assembly:
• Bring brown sugar, molasses, and reserved marinade to a simmer in a large saucepan; cook until reduced by one-third, 6-8 minutes (you should have about 1 1/3 cups). Keep warm.
• Prepare a Big Green Egg for medium-high heat (or use a conventional grill). Grill pork, basting and turning with 2 pairs of tongs every minute or so, until thickly coated with glaze, lightly charred in spots, and warmed through (an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part should register 130°F-145°F; be careful not to overcook), 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board; slice against the grain ¼" thick. Serve with pickles, bread, cilantro, and onion.
• Do Ahead
• Pork can be roasted 2 days ahead. Let cool; cover and chill.

STIR-FRIED PORK WITH GINGER & HONEY

Steps:

• Bring a pan of salted water to the boil and cook the noodles following pack instructions. Meanwhile, mix the cornflour with 1 tbsp water, then stir in the soy sauce and honey, and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a wok over a high heat. Add the pork and cook for 2 mins until browned all over. Add the ginger, garlic, pepper and mangetout, and cook for a further 2 mins. Reduce the heat, then add the soy and honey mixture, stirring and cooking until the sauce bubbles and thickens. Divide the drained noodles between 2 bowls. Top with the pork and vegetables, and finish with a sprinkling of sesame seeds.

STICKY GARLIC PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Combine brown sugar, garlic, rice vinegar, and fish sauce in a bowl for the marinade. Add a splash of soy sauce and a plop of ketchup. Finish off with black pepper and hot sauce.
• Pour 1/2 of the marinade into a baking dish and lay pork chops over marinade. Pour the remaining marinade on top and toss pork chops until well coated. Wrap with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator, flipping chops every 30 minutes, 1 to 2 hours.
• Remove chops to a plate, scraping any excess marinade back into the baking dish.
• Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Place chops in the hot oil. Cook until outsides are nicely charred and meat springs back when lightly prodded, about 5 minutes per side. Remove chops to a plate to rest.
• Pour the marinade into the skillet. Raise heat to medium-high. Cook until marinade is reduced and sticky, 3 to 5 minutes. Return pork chops and any accumulated juices to the skillet.
• Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook pork chops, flipping and basting occasionally, until the centers are slightly pink and sauce is to your desired degree of stickiness, 6 to 8 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the pork should read about 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).
• Plate each pork chop and spoon a portion of the sticky garlic sauce on top.
