1.
Whisk together the
honey or syrup, chili sauce, and rice wine vinegar. Set aside
2.
Heat the oil into a
cast iron skillet over medium high heat and swirl to coat, until shimmering.
Season the pork with plenty of salt and pepper; toss to combine. Carefully add the pork to the
pan, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Let the first side
brown, flip the pieces with tongs or spatula, and brown the second side.
Transfer the pork to a plate.
3.
Return the pan to the
heat and add in the garlic and ginger. Sauté for 30 seconds. Increase the heat
to high and pour in the sauce mixture and bring to a boil, stirring frequently.
When the sauce is bubbly, toss the pork back in and toss constantly to coat
everything and reduce the sauce to a thick, sticky glaze on the pork. Serve
immediately over rice bowls with all the assorted toppings. (What’s Gaby
