Instructions
1
Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2
Grate the peel of an orange and set aside. Squeeze two oranges and set aside as well. Next, grate the ginger.
3
Place the pork on the cutting board. Remove the fat from the pork. Add some salt and pepper on both sides.
4
Use a large pan and add some olive oil. Once the oil is hot, place the pork and sear on both sides. It's not necessary to cook thoroughly, just 2-3 minutes on each side is sufficient. Once it's seared, place in an oven-safe dish.
5
Use the same pan you used to sear the pork. Add the grated orange peel, orange juice, grated ginger, and sugar. Mix these ingredients with a spoon for barely 1 minute. After this time, pour over the pork in the dish.
6
Place the oven-safe dish and bake for 40-50 minutes. Check on the pork every 10 minutes and use a spoon to baste the pork with the sauce.
7
After the indicated time, serve.
Tips & Tricks
Once done cooking the meat, if there is a lot of sauce leftover in the dish and it's too liquidy, you can put it in a pot and add corn starch to thicken it.
