Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces pork steaks
- 8 rings pineapple rings (fresh or canned)
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons honey
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons lime juice
- 2 stalks green onions (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Season the pork steaks on both sides with salt and black pepper, and let them rest for 10 minutes to absorb the seasoning.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, lime juice, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil to create the marinade.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
Once the pan is hot, sear the pork steaks for 3-4 minutes on each side, until they develop a golden-brown crust. Remove the steaks and set aside.
In the same pan, add the pineapple rings and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until caramelized. Remove and set aside.
Pour the marinade into the pan and let it simmer for 2-3 minutes to thicken slightly.
Return the pork steaks to the pan and coat them with the sauce. Cover and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes or until the steaks are fully cooked (internal temperature should reach 145°F/63°C).
Plate the pork steaks and top each with a caramelized pineapple ring. Drizzle the remaining glaze over the dish.
Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot with your choice of sides, such as steamed rice or roasted vegetables.
