Caramelized Pork Slices

SUBMITTED BY: Elisa Lochridge

"'This easy treatment for pork caught my eye when I was paging through a cookbook and saw the word 'caramelized,' Elisa Lochridge recalls from her home in Aloha, Oregon. 'The slightly sweet glaze is yummy. I like to serve this over noodles or rice...or with mashed potatoes.'"
