I can't remember the last time I've cooked with pork (unless you count bacon), so I guess now is as good a time as any to get back in the habit. This is a simple, light stir fry. Slightly sweet, but with a little bit of heat. Serve with rice and extra veggies (or throw more veggies on the frying pan). I scaled down the amount of pork, but left the amount of sauce and bell pepper the same. If you aren't doing a side vegetable, I would increase the bell pepper.
Kay's Pork Strips from Kayotic Kitchen
Ingredients
6 pork cutlets, cut into thin strips
3 tbsp apricot jelly (she says you can use any jelly - apricot, orange, peach ... I ended up using jam)
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp soy sauce
1/2 tsp sesame oil (I think I forgot this ... oops! It was a long day.)
1 tsp ginger (or a tbsp), freshly grated (I think I forgot this ... oops! It was a long day.)
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 chopped chili pepper (I upped this to a full chili pepper)
1/2 bell pepper, sliced
3 spring onions, chopped
salt
1 tbsp oil
1. In a bowl, whisk together jelly, honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, garlic, chili pepper, and pinch of salt.
2. Cover pork in marinade and let sit for 15 minutes.
3. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a pan. Add pork strips. Do not stir immediately. Let the sauce caramelize. After a few minutes when the pork starts to turn white, flip it.
4. Add bell pepper and onions. Cook until done, but don't overcook the pork.
