How to Make Asian Style Stuffed Pork Loin
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked rice, finely chopped water chestnuts, green onions, mushrooms, soy sauce, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil. Mix well.
- Butterfly the pork loin lengthwise, creating a pocket. Carefully stuff the pork loin with the rice mixture, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
- Tie the pork loin with kitchen twine to secure the stuffing.
- Place the stuffed pork loin in a roasting pan and pour the chicken broth around it.
- Roast for 60-70 minutes, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F (63°C).
- Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- While the pork rests, prepare the sauce: In a small saucepan, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and cornstarch. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring constantly, until thickened.
- Slice the pork loin and pour the sauce over it before serving. Garnish with extra green onions, if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
