How to Make Awesome Spicy Thai Boneless Pork Loin
- In a medium bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons lime juice, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 2-3 Thai chilies, finely chopped (adjust to your spice preference).
- Thoroughly whisk the marinade until well combined.
- Place the boneless pork loin (approximately 3-4 lbs) in a large resealable zip-top bag. Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring it's coated evenly.
- Refrigerate the marinated pork loin for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight, turning the bag occasionally to distribute the marinade.
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
- Grease a shallow roasting pan with cooking spray or a small amount of oil. Place the pork loin in the roasting pan uncovered and roast for 15 minutes.
- Reduce the oven temperature to 350°F (175°C).
- Continue roasting the pork loin until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 170°F (77°C). This will take approximately 90-110 minutes, depending on the size of your pork loin. Baste the pork with pan juices every 20-30 minutes for extra flavor and moisture.
- Once cooked, remove the pork loin from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
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.
