Reviews
OK, I cheated somewhat. I used bottled Terriaki sauce, added some Soy sauce and lots of garlic for my marinade. I also used some of the other suggestions and seared the pork before putting in the oven at 375 for 25 minutes.
Works out SO tender and yummy!
I used the pan juices to saute some spinach to go along with it. Daughter and I ate it up!
Substitutions: I don’t keep sherry in the house but was told that it tends to taste like a flavored vinegar so I used balsmic (spelling) vinegar & red wine vinegar for the rice vinegar & ‘powdered ginger’ for the root.
The results were fabulous. Who says low-cal, healthy food has to taste like dried out cardboard??
Served it with easy brown rice & a marvelous sald that had greens that came with a soy ginger vinegrette plus naval orange pieces, Florida avacado cut into small pieces, sliced red onion.
Thanks, Food Network.
