Honey Soy Garlic Glazed Frozen Pork Loin

Honey Soy Garlic Glazed Frozen Pork Loin

The honey soy garlic glaze adds a delicious sweet and savory flavor to the pork loin while keeping it moist and tender. Basting the pork with the glaze as it roasts creates a beautiful caramelized crust. Cooking the frozen pork loin directly in the oven saves time and effort. This recipe is perfect for an easy weeknight dinner or weekend meal. Pair it with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes or a fresh salad for a complete and satisfying dinner.

Ingredients
  

  • 1 frozen pork loin roast 3-4 lbs
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 3 cloves garlic minced

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a small saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce and minced garlic. Heat over medium, stirring frequently, until glaze is warm and well combined, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
  3. Place frozen pork loin on a baking sheet or in a roasting pan. Rub with olive oil and season all over with salt, pepper and garlic powder.
  4. Pour half the honey soy garlic glaze over the pork, turning to coat evenly.
  5. Roast for 1.5 to 2 hours, basting with remaining glaze every 30 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
  6. Remove from oven and let rest 10 minutes before slicing. Spoon any remaining pan juices over the sliced pork.
  7. Serve immediately with your favorite sides. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Ensure the internal temperature of the pork loin reaches 63°C (145°F) for safe consumption.
  • If you prefer a thicker glaze, allow the honey soy garlic mixture to simmer a bit longer until it reduces slightly.
  • Use a meat thermometer for accurate cooking to avoid under or overcooking the pork.
  • This dish can be easily adapted by adding different herbs or spices to the glaze for a personalised flavour twist.
