Steps:
- In a liquid measuring cup or a small mixing bowl, whisk together the mild honey, sriracha, and rice wine vinegar. Set aside.
- Pour the oil into a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium high heat and swirl to coat. Let it heat until it is shimmering. While the oil heats, sprinkle the pork strips with kosher salt and black pepper then toss with your hands to distribute it evenly. Carefully add the pork to the pan, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Let the first side brown, flip the pieces with tongs or a spatula, and brown the second side. Transfer the pork to a plate.
- Return the pan to the heat and add in the garlic and ginger. Stir until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
- Raise the heat to high and pour in the sauce mixture and bring to a boil, stirring frequently. When the sauce is very bubbly and thickened like warm honey, toss the pork back in and toss constantly to coat everything and reduce the sauce to a thick, sticky glaze on the pork. This can be served immediately over rice, noodles, or as finger food, or can be allowed to cool and be eaten cold.

Tips:
- Use fresh ginger for the marinade. Fresh ginger has a more pungent flavor than ground ginger, and it will give your pork a more intense flavor.
- Grate the ginger finely. This will help the flavor of the ginger to penetrate the pork more easily.
- Use a combination of light and dark soy sauce. Light soy sauce is less salty than dark soy sauce, and it will give your pork a more balanced flavor.
- Add a little bit of honey or brown sugar to the marinade. This will help to caramelize the pork and give it a slightly sweet flavor.
- Let the pork marinate for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. If you marinate the pork for too long, the ginger flavor will become too strong.
- Cook the pork over medium heat. This will help to prevent the pork from drying out.
- Serve the pork with your favorite sides, such as rice, noodles, or vegetables.
Conclusion:
Ginger marinade is a great way to add flavor to pork. It is easy to make and can be used with a variety of pork dishes. Whether you are grilling, roasting, or stir-frying pork, a ginger marinade will help to make your dish more delicious. So next time you are looking for a way to add some extra flavor to your pork, give ginger marinade a try.
