Ingredients

• 2 lbs Pork loin
• 0.5 cup Gluten-free tamari sauce
• 0.25 cup Pineapple juice
• 3 tbsp Honey
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tsp Fresh ginger, grated
• 1 tbsp Sesame oil
• 2 tsp Cornstarch
• 2 tbsp Water
• 2 stalks Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
• 1 tsp Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, whisk together the gluten-free tamari sauce, pineapple juice, honey, minced garlic, grated ginger, and sesame oil to create the teriyaki marinade.

Step 2

Place the pork loin in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish, then pour the marinade over the pork loin. Ensure the meat is fully coated. Seal the bag or cover the dish and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, ideally overnight for maximum flavor.

Step 3

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).

Step 4

Remove the pork loin from the marinade, reserving the marinade for later use. Place the pork loin on a roasting pan lined with aluminum foil.

Step 5

Bake the pork loin in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Baste the pork loin with some of the reserved marinade halfway through cooking.

Step 6

While the pork loin is baking, prepare the teriyaki glaze. Pour the reserved marinade into a small saucepan and bring it to a boil. Let it cook for 1-2 minutes to eliminate any bacteria from the raw pork.

Step 7

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Slowly whisk the slurry into the boiling marinade. Lower the heat and simmer for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce thickens into a glossy glaze.

Step 8

Once the pork loin is fully cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to retain the juices.

Step 9

Slice the pork loin into ½-inch thick pieces and drizzle the teriyaki glaze generously over the top.

Step 10

Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving. Enjoy your Gluten-Free Teriyaki Pork Loin with steamed rice and sautéed vegetables for a complete meal!
