👩🍳 How to make pork leg in pineapple sauce step by step
-
Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F).
-
Heat olive oil in a large pan. Season the pork leg with salt and pepper, then sear it on all sides (about 5 minutes per side). This locks in the juices.
-
In a blender, combine the pineapple juice, onion, garlic, bell pepper, chicken broth, soy sauce, vinegar, honey, and ginger. Blend until smooth.
-
Place the seared pork leg in a baking dish. Pour the pineapple sauce over it and arrange the pineapple slices around.
-
Cover with foil and bake for about 3 hours, turning the pork occasionally and basting it with the sauce to keep it juicy.
-
Once tender, remove from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
-
Serve hot with the sauce and pineapple slices. Pair with rice or mashed potatoes for the perfect finish.
