Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Savory Pork Fried Rice.
Step 1
To start your delicious pork dish, grab a resealable zip-top bag and combine the pork with 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, red wine, brown sugar, honey, ground cinnamon, and minced garlic.
Step 2
Seal the bag tightly and give it a gentle massage to ensure the marinade coats the pork evenly.
Step 3
For the best flavor, let it marinate at room temperature for about an hour, or pop it in the fridge overnight if you have the time.
Step 4
This will really enhance the taste! Next, preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 5
While the oven warms up, drain the marinade into a cup and set it aside for later.
Step 6
Arrange the marinated pork on a rimmed baking sheet, making sure it’s spread out nicely.
Step 7
Bake the pork in the preheated oven, turning it occasionally and basting with the reserved marinade, until it’s cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
Step 8
This should take about 45 minutes, and you’ll want the internal temperature to reach at least 145°F (63°C) for perfectly juicy pork.
Step 9
While the pork is baking, let’s whip up some fluffy scrambled eggs.
Step 10
In a large skillet or wok, heat a splash of vegetable oil over medium to medium-high heat.
Step 11
Pour in the beaten eggs and stir gently as they cook, keeping an eye on them until they’re set but still fluffy—this should take about 3 to 4 minutes.
Step 12
Once the eggs are ready, add the cooked pork, some rice, and chopped onion to the skillet.
Step 13
Stir everything together and let it cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion turns translucent, which should take around 6 minutes.
Step 14
Now it’s time to add some color and crunch! Stir in the thawed peas, bean sprouts, and the remaining 3 tablespoons of soy sauce.
Step 15
Cook this vibrant mixture, stirring occasionally, until everything is heated through, which will take about 5 minutes.
Step 16
Finally, toss in the chopped green onions and give it a good mix.
Step 17
And there you have it! Serve your flavorful pork and rice dish immediately, and enjoy the delightful blend of tastes and textures.
Step 18
This meal is sure to impress your family and friends, making it a perfect choice for any occasion!.
