Recipe Introduction
I had this boneless pork shoulder--it was on sale, and my husband bought a whole bunch. Not a whole lot of variety out there for braised pork shoulder recipes--I think there are about 4 recipes recycled on the whole internet, lol. I looked and didn't find any that I had all of the ingredients for, so I took some stuff out of the fridge and cupboards came up with this one. It's really easy, and delicious.
List of Ingredients
3 Tbs oil
2 1/2-3 lbs boneless pork shoulder, trimmed and cut into almost bite-size cubes
3 bulbs shallots, sliced
6 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 cup low sodium soy sauce
1/4 cup white wine
1 1/2 tsp fresh ground ginger
1/2 tsp five-spice powder
1/8- 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper
1/4 cup apricot preserves
1/4 cup orange marmalade
2 Tbs hoisin sauce
1/2 cup chicken broth
cooked white rice, for serving with,if desired
Recipe
1 Heat oven to 275°.
2 For the sauce--In a bowl, mix the garlic, soy sauce, wine, ginger, 5 spice powder, cayenne, apricot preserves, marmalade, hoisin and broth--set aside.
3 Heat 2 tbsp of oil in a skillet or dutch oven with a lid, that is also oven-safe.
4 Saute the pork until browned, then remove to a plate.
5 Add the last tbsp of oil to the pan, and saute the shallots for about 2 minutes.
6 Add the meat back to the pan, then stir in the sauce mixture.
7 Bring to a simmer, cover, and place the pan in the oven.
8 Bake for 1- 1 1/2 hours, until meat is tender and falls apart easily.
9 Serve over white rice, if desired.
Preparation time: 25 minutes
