Honey Soy Pork Loin

Honey Soy Pork Loin is spicy, sweet, and very simple to make. This pork is delicious and tender and will melt in your mouth.

This is one of the easiest recipes to make. You can roast the pork loin in the oven, cook it low and slow in the slow cooker, grill it, or pan cook it. It’s a great recipe for my Encore recipes because you can use leftover pork loin to make it. (Encore recipes are my cook once, eat twice philosophy. Click here for more.)

Honey Soy Pork Loin

Because I like slightly sweet and definitely heat, this flavor profile really appeals to me. Honey, soy sauce, and crushed red peppers are the main flavor notes that you get. This sauce will also be great on chicken.

I like to serve Honey Soy Pork Loin with fluffy rice and a green salad.

Chicken would be a great substitution for pork in this recipe.

Like more heat? Add an additional 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
