Slow Cooker Teriyaki Pork with Rice
Ingredients
- 1/2 pork loin (about 2-2.5lbs)
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1/2 cup teriyaki sauce
- 1/4 brown sugar
- 1/2 large onion (sliced)
- 1 cup white rice
- 4-5 carrots
- oil/butter/favorite seasonings
Instructions
1. We will be using half of a pork loin for this meal, so save the other half. You can go ahead and cut the other half into thin pork chops to save time!
2. In a large skillet, brown the sides of your pork loin in oil. I usually do 5-8 minutes per side depending on the size. Once fully browned place pork loin in the crockpot.
3. In a small bowl, combine chicken broth, teriyaki and brown sugar. Put sliced onions on top of the pork and then pour the sauce over the top. Cook on low for 4-6 hours and turn the meat every 1-2 hours.
4. Closer to dinner time, make basic white rice with 1 cup rice & 2 cups water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat, cover and simmer for 15-20 minutes.
5. Peel carrots and slice on the diagonal. I like to saute these in oil or butter until tender. You can also add your favorite seasonings, but I go pretty mild with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
6. I serve this rice bowl style with rice on the bottom, carrots and pork with sauce on top!
