Ingredients

¼ cup Kikkoman® Soy Sauce 
1 tablespoon Kikkoman® Sesame Oil 
1 teaspoon minced garlic

½ medium ripe pear, peeled and grated
1 tablespoon brown sugar 
1 tablespoon gochujang 
2 pounds boneless pork loin, sliced thinly

Directions

  1. Stir together soy sauce, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, grated pear, brown sugar, and gochujang in a medium mixing bowl.  
  2. Add thinly sliced pork to marinade and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate for 2 hours. Before cooking, set bowl out at room temperature for 30 minutes.
