Ingredients

• 3 pounds boneless pork loin roast
• 2 teaspoons salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 cup brown sugar
• 0.25 cup honey
• 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon sriracha sauce
• 0.5 teaspoon ground ginger
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 2

Pat the pork loin roast dry with paper towels, then season it evenly with salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. Set aside.

Step 3

Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large oven-safe skillet or roasting pan over medium-high heat.

Step 4

Sear the pork roast on all sides until browned, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove the skillet from the heat.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, honey, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, sriracha sauce, and ground ginger to make the glaze.

Step 6

Brush half of the glaze mixture evenly over the pork roast.

Step 7

Place the skillet or roasting pan with the pork into the preheated oven. Roast uncovered for 60-70 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).

Step 8

Every 15-20 minutes, baste the pork with some of the remaining glaze for enhanced flavor and caramelization.

Step 9

Once the pork roast is cooked through, remove it from the oven and tent it loosely with foil. Let it rest for 10 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.

Step 10

Slice the pork roast into thick slices and serve warm with your choice of sides, drizzling any remaining glaze over the top for added flavor.
