Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds pork roast (boneless)
- 0.5 cup soy sauce
- 0.25 cup honey
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh ginger (grated)
- 2 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water (for cornstarch slurry)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 2 stalks green onions (sliced, optional for garnish)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, honey, brown sugar, rice vinegar, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic to create the teriyaki sauce.
Place the pork roast in a roasting pan or oven-safe dish with high sides.
Pour the teriyaki sauce evenly over the pork roast, ensuring it is well coated.
Cover the pan tightly with aluminum foil to keep the meat moist and transfer it to the preheated oven.
Bake for 60 minutes, then remove the foil and baste the pork with its juices. Return the roast to the oven uncovered and bake for an additional 20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Carefully transfer the pork roast to a cutting board and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
While the pork is resting, pour the pan juices into a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to make a slurry. Slowly whisk the slurry into the simmering pan juices to thicken the sauce.
Slice the pork roast into thin slices and drizzle with the thickened teriyaki sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions if desired.
Serve hot with rice or steamed vegetables, and enjoy your flavorful teriyaki pork roast!
