Holiday Centerpiece
Hungry Girl describes this dish as a fruity showstopper that is worthy of being the the centerpiece of a big holiday dinner. After testing the dish for myself, I would wholeheartedly agree. After being marinaded for optimum flavor, the pork is pan roasted then brushed with glaze that's unbelievably good.

Ingredients:
Marinade
2 tbsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce (gluten free of course)

7. Transfer skillet to oven and bake for 10 minutes.
