Number Of Ingredients 15

1 boneless pork sirloin roast (3 to 4 pounds)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 medium onions, cut into thin wedges
1 cup plus 3 tablespoons orange juice, divided
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon white grapefruit juice
1 tablespoon steak sauce
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons cornstarch
Hot cooked egg noodles
Minced fresh oregano, optional

Steps:

  • Cut roast in half. In a small bowl, combine the oregano, ginger and pepper; rub over pork. In a large nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, brown roast on all sides. Transfer to a 4-qt. slow cooker; add onions.
  • In a small bowl, combine 1 cup orange juice, sugar, grapefruit juice, steak sauce and soy sauce; pour over top. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until meat is tender. Remove meat and onions to a serving platter; keep warm.
  • Skim fat from cooking juices; transfer to a small saucepan. Add orange zest and salt. Bring to a boil. Combine cornstarch and the remaining orange juice until smooth. Gradually stir into the pan. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with pork and noodles; if desired, sprinkle with fresh oregano.
  • Yield: 8 servings.
