By Janet-2

Ingredients

• Marinade:
• 1 boneless pork shoulder or butt (3 lb.)
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
• 3 tbsp. Chinese rice wine or dry sherry
• 2 tbsp. ketchup
• 2 tbsp. sugar
• 1 tbsp. grated orange peel
• 1 tsp. minced garlic
• 1 tsp. sesame oil
• 1/2 tsp. Chinese five-spice
• 1 tbsp. sesame seed paste (optional)
• 4-5 drops red food color (optional)

Preparation

Step 1

Trim excess fat from pork. Cut meat into pieces roughly 1 inch thick, 3 inches wide and 8 inches long

Combine marinade ingredients in a large bowl; add pork and stir to coat. Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or up to overnight; turn meat occasionally.

Preheat oven to 350 F. Remove meat from marinade; reserve marinade. Place meat on a rack in a foil-lined baking pan. Bake, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Turn slices over and bake for 45 minutes longer, brushing occasionally with reserved marinade.

Cut into thin slices. Serve hot or cold.
