Delicious! The reduction does take a little extra time, so drain the marinade from the pork and start the reduction before you glaze the pork & pop it in the oven.

This is a lovely recipe. I’ve made it twice now — both times with a pork roast, not tenderloin. I doubled the marinade and glaze (the roasts were just over 3 lbs. each) and each time, it came out beautifully. I usually marinate for a full 24 hours. The pork turns out moist and juicy — savory from the sesame, sweet from the honey, and has a nice little kick from the red pepper flakes. (I only cook to an internal temp of 150 degrees — still safe, according to the National Pork Board.) I did make the sauce the first time, but I didn’t really enjoy it so I skipped it the second time around. I don’t think it needs it. I may try to make a different sauce from the reserved marinade sometime — it’s such a wonderful recipe. Thank you for an amazing recipe!

Made this tonight for dinner and it was absolutely delicious!! The reduction sauce took awhile but was oh so worth it in the end! Will be making this again for sure! Thank you for this fabulous recipe!

Not adding this as a review because I switched it up and used chicken and shrimp instead of pork. It was yummy! Only tip would be to start the reduction BEFORE you put the meat in to cook, it took probably 20-30 minutes for it to reduce properly! Served it with japanese rice, and a red pepper and onion saute with a sprinkle of sugar, a pinch of salt, and a dash of mirin. I will make it again!
