This got rave reviews when I served it and I have been requested to serve it again and my son, who is a very picky eater, said "don't change a thing!". I served this with quick cook rice and 1 can of green beans.

I had purchased a pound of pork that was cut into cubes at a deep discount (was under $2) which I assume was leftover pieces for a stew of sorts and went in search on the web of ideas on how to use it when I came across this recipe at Recipezaar. I didn't have all of the ingredients that it called for but I decided to give it a try, so I adapted it into the following:

You Will Need (8 things)

  • 1 lbs Pork (may work with other meats as well)
  • Non Stick Cooking Spray
  • 8 oz Mushroom(s) , sliced
  • ½ cup Honey
  • 2 tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 1 tbsp Salsa or ketchup
  • ¼ tsp ground Ginger
  • 1/8 tsp Garlic Salt

Steps (4 steps, 40 minutes)

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 350 degrees and if you use fresh mushrooms slice into pieces (I used button mushrooms and sliced mine vertically).

  2. 2

    To make sauce, mix the honey, soy sauce, salsa or ketchup, ginger and garlic salt in a small container or bowl.

  3. 3

    Use non-stick cooking spray to saute the pork and the mushrooms over medium high heat for 8-12 mins or until the meat is fully cooked.

  4. 4

    Spray a casserole dish or 9X9 in pan with non-stick cooking spray then put in sauteed meat and mushroom and pour sauce over them and toss to coat all the pieces, then bake for 20-25 minutes at 350 degrees.
