Ginger Pork Cubes with Lime-Horseradish Sauce

I got this recipe from one of my professors in college who is an awesome chef! Every time I'm back in St. Joe, I am lucky to be invited to their house to enjoy a meal... and steal the recipe! Note that this needs to be prepared the night before you eat!

INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 lbs of boneless pork, cut into 1 inch cubes

3 TBS soy sauce

1 clove crushed garlic

1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper

1/2 tsp sugar

1 tsp minced ginger root

1 tsp peanut oil

Lime-Horseradish Sauce (see below)

DIRECTIONS:

Mix together soy sauce, garlic, pepper, sugar, ginger and peanut oil. Place pork in 1 gallon food storage bag and add mixture. Seal bag and put into fridge- let it sit overnight. Take the meat out and allow it to come to room temperature before cooking.

Preheat oven to 325, spread the pork in a single layer in a baking pan and bake for about 1 hour, turning several times.

Put it in a bowl and serve with...

Lime-Horseradish Sauce

INGREDIENTS:

1/3 cup grated horseradish

1/3 cup lime juice (fresh is the best!)

1/3 mayo (do not use miracle whip!)

1/3 cup plain yogurt

salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:

Blend all in a processor or blender. Put mixture in a non-reactive bowl and cover tightly. Store in the fridge overnight to allow flavors to blend. 

Tasty Sides:

• New potatoes- steamed, roasted or fried in a skillet (I sliced them really thin, and fried them in a skillet with butter, onions and Nature's Season tonight).
  
• Roasted Asparagus or Green Beans slow boiled with ham hock
  
• Spring Salad! (The warm weather inspired me to spring up the meal tonight!). I just use the pre-mixed baby greens from the store, with strawberries, mango, and blueberries. The dressing, Brianna's Blush Vinaigrette is so good! You can also toast pecans to put in there, yum!
  
• Garlic Bread
