Mirin, a rice wine with a low alcohol content, is the key ingredient to this teriyaki sauce's authentic flavor. The wine's high sugar content allows it to reduce into a syrup glaze. Look for mirin in the Asian foods section of your local supermarket. Serve with Pineapple Salsa and precooked white rice.
How to Make It
Combine first 4 ingredients, stirring with a whisk.
Cut pork crosswise into 8 pieces. Place pork pieces between 2 sheets of heavy-duty plastic wrap; pound each piece to 1/2-inch thickness using a meat mallet or small heavy skillet.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Coat pork generously with cooking spray; add to pan. Cook 3 minutes on each side or until done. Remove pork from pan; place on a serving platter. Add mirin mixture to pan. Cook 2 minutes or until mixture thickens slightly.
Return pork and accumulated juices to pan. Cook 2 minutes, turning pork to coat. Serve pork with sauce and Pineapple Salsa.
