About Pork with lemon sauce

Pork with Lemon Sauce is a flavorful dish rooted in Asian-inspired cuisine, combining tender pork cuts with a tangy, zesty lemon glaze. The pork is typically pan-seared or lightly fried to lock in its savory juices, then coated with a sauce made from fresh lemon juice, sugar, and cornstarch for thickening, often enhanced with garlic or ginger for added depth. While pork is a good source of protein and essential vitamins like B6 and B12, this dish can be high in sodium and sugars depending on the preparation. The lemon sauce contributes vitamin C, supporting immune health and adding brightness to the dish. Opting for lean cuts of pork and reducing sugar in the sauce can make this meal a more heart-healthy choice while retaining its signature balance of savory and citrus flavors.
