A delightful twist on the classic Chinese roast pork, this recipe brings out a perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors.
Cut the pork into strips about 1 inch wide.
Cutting the pork into uniform strips ensures even cooking.
Combine the sugar, rice wine, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, salt, ginger, and garlic in a mixing bowl or zippered plastic bag.
Mix the marinade thoroughly to ensure all ingredients are well combined.
Add the pork strips to the marinade, ensuring they are fully coated. Refrigerate overnight, turning occasionally.
Marinating overnight allows the flavors to penetrate deeply into the meat.
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C).
Ensure the oven is fully preheated before placing the pork inside.
Line a roasting pan with foil and place a rack on top. Spray the rack with cooking spray.
Lining the pan with foil makes cleanup easier.
Arrange the marinated pork strips on the rack and roast for 30 minutes, turning halfway through.
Turning the pork halfway ensures even cooking and browning.
Serve the pork strips hot or cold as desired.
Garnish with chopped green onions or sesame seeds for added flavor and presentation.
