Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Pork steaks
- 2 tablespoons (grated) Fresh ginger
- 3 minced Garlic cloves
- 1 tablespoon Smoked paprika
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
- 2 tablespoons Lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 2 tablespoons (chopped) Cilantro (optional)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ginger, garlic, smoked paprika, soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice, brown sugar, vegetable oil, chili flakes, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a marinade.
Place the pork steaks into the marinade, ensuring they are evenly coated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more intense flavor.
Preheat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add a thin layer of vegetable oil if necessary to prevent sticking.
Remove the pork steaks from the marinade, allowing excess marinade to drip off. Reserve the remaining marinade for later.
Place the pork steaks in the hot skillet and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until nicely seared and cooked through. The internal temperature should reach 145°F (63°C).
While the pork is cooking, pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan. Bring it to a boil and cook for 2-3 minutes to make a sauce.
Once the pork steaks are done, remove them from the skillet and let them rest for 5 minutes to retain their juices.
Serve the pork steaks drizzled with the cooked marinade sauce. Garnish with chopped cilantro if desired. Best paired with steamed jasmine rice or a fresh salad.
