HONEY-SOY BRAISED PORK WITH LIME AND GINGER
This is a wonderfully simple and hands-off way to prepare a flavorful hunk of meat, equally suited to a weeknight or a dinner party. There is no need to brown the pork first because the meat gets appealingly dark and caramelized while braising in the rich combination of soy sauce and honey. Fresh cilantro, scallions and a squeeze of lime added just before serving bring freshness. This meal is flexible: It works over rice or other whole grains, tossed with noodles or wrapped in lettuce leaves.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 325 degrees. Place the pork in a large Dutch oven that has a lid. Scatter the garlic, ginger, red-pepper flakes and lime zest over the top. In a measuring cup, whisk together the tamari, honey and sesame oil, then pour it over the pork. Using tongs, turn to coat all sides of the pork in the sauce, and spoon some over the top so that some of the garlic and ginger is on top of the pork. Cover, transfer to the oven and cook for 2 hours.
- Uncover the pot and flip both chunks of pork. Cover the pot and braise until the pork shreds easily with a fork, about 1 more hour. Transfer to the stovetop.
- Using tongs, transfer the pork to a serving platter or a large shallow serving bowl. Using a ladle, skim and discard the excess fat off the surface of the cooking liquid remaining in the Dutch oven, if desired. Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat and let it simmer until reduced and slightly syrupy, about 8 minutes.
- While the sauce simmers, coarsely shred the pork using two forks. Sprinkle the lime juice over the top of the meat. Drizzle about half the sauce over the top of the shredded meat, then toss to combine. Serve over rice or noodles or in lettuce cups. Top with sesame seeds, scallions and cilantro. Pass the remaining sauce at the table, if desired, as well as extra lime wedges and red-pepper flakes.

- Turn on broiler, if using.

GRILLED LIME-GINGER MARINATED PORK LOIN
This is another one of my experimental yet successful creations. DH, the guinea pig, heartily approved. The pork loin turns out tender and juicy with many layers of flavor: smokiness from the grill, tanginess from the lime juice, nuttiness/saltiness from the soy sauce and a little heat from the ginger and red pepper flakes.

Steps:
- Preheat gas grill to medium heat.
- Into a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag, place pork loin first and then remaining ingredients. Seal bag, gently squeezing as much air out as possible. With your hands, toss and squeeze the bag until the pork loin is well-coated. Marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes or refrigerated for NO MORE THAN two hours. The lime juice tenderizes the meat so well that if marinated any longer, it could cause the meat to break down too much.
- Grill pork loin for 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally, until juices run clear when thickest part is pricked with a meat fork.
- Remove meat from grill and allow to rest for 5 minutes.
- Slice on the bias and serve.

SLOW COOKER HONEY-SOY BRAISED PORK WITH LIME AND GINGER
Here to save your weeknight life: a slow-cooker main that's truly "set-it-and-forget-it," with results that taste like they required significantly more effort. This rich and flavorful pork takes about 5 minutes to throw together in the morning. Before dinner, just simmer the sauce - a sweet-salty mix of soy and honey - until it's syrupy, shred the meat, add a flurry of fresh herbs and you're done. The meat is a wonderfully simple anchor, and you can build a meal around it: Add lettuce cups and kimchi or serve it over rice, whole grains or even tortillas.

Steps:
- Place the pork in a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker. Scatter the garlic, ginger, red-pepper flakes and lime zest over the top. In a liquid measuring cup, whisk together the tamari, honey and sesame oil, then pour it over the pork. Using tongs, turn to coat all sides of the pork in the sauce, and spoon some over the top so that some of the garlic and ginger is on top of the pork. Cover and cook on low until the pork is very tender and shreds easily with a fork, 8 to 9 hours; it will hold well on warm. (If you are home and able to flip the pork once during cooking, that will help the flavors distribute evenly on the meat and make the color uniform. If not, it will be fine.)
- Using tongs, transfer the pork from the slow cooker to a serving platter or large, shallow serving bowl. Using a ladle, skim excess fat off the surface of the cooking liquid, if desired. Carefully pour the sauce into a large pot. Bring the sauce to a boil over medium-high heat and let it simmer until reduced and slightly syrupy, 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, coarsely shred the pork using two forks.
- Sprinkle the lime juice over the top of the meat. Drizzle about half the sauce over the top of the shredded meat, tossing to evenly combine. Serve over rice or noodles or in lettuce cups. Top with sesame seeds, scallions and cilantro. Pass the remaining sauce at the table, if desired, as well as extra lime wedges and red-pepper flakes.

Steps:
- Whisk together 2/3 cup broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, ketchup, ginger, garlic, and vinegar and pour into a large sealable plastic bag. Add tenderloin and seal bag, then marinate, chilled, turning bag over occasionally, 2 hours.
- Bring tenderloin to room temperature, about 1 hour.
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 425°F.
- Pat tenderloin dry and reserve marinade. Heat oil in a 12-inch ovenproof skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then brown tenderloin on all sides, turning with tongs, about 3 minutes total. Transfer skillet to oven and roast pork until thermometer inserted diagonally into center of meat registers 155°F, 12 to 15 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let stand, loosely covered with foil, 10 minutes.
- While meat is roasting, pour marinade through a fine-mesh sieve into a small saucepan and boil until reduced to about 1/3 cup, 10 to 15 minutes. Stir in remaining cup broth and bring sauce to a simmer. Serve slices of tenderloin with sauce.
Tips:
- Tenderloin Selection: Opt for a tenderloin that's pinkish-red in color, firm to the touch, and free of any discoloration or blemishes.
- Marinating: Don't skip the marinating step, as it infuses the tenderloin with incredible flavors and keeps it moist during cooking.
- Searing: Before roasting, sear the tenderloin in a hot pan to create a delicious crust and lock in the juices.
- Roasting Temperature: Roast the tenderloin at a high temperature initially to achieve a golden-brown exterior, then reduce the heat to finish cooking gently.
- Resting: Let the tenderloin rest for a few minutes before slicing to allow the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
- Sauce and Garnish: Prepare the soy-ginger-lime sauce while the tenderloin is resting. Drizzle the sauce generously over the sliced tenderloin and garnish with green onions, lime wedges, and sesame seeds for a vibrant presentation.
