This tastes like the pork served in my favorite Chinese restaurant. Serve at room temperature arranged in overlapping layers on a platter. Garnish with cucumber slices, if desired.

Fill a shallow roasting pan with water and place in bottom of oven. Carefully place pork strips on a roasting rack above roasting pan so all sides are exposed to heat. If you don't have a roasting rack, insert the curved end of an S-shaped hook, paper clip, or drapery hook in pork strips and hang them from the top shelf.

Roast for 30 minutes. Baste pork strips with honey mixture. Roast 15 minutes and baste again. Roast 10 minutes longer or until pork strips are crisp and golden brown. Remove from oven and let cool.

Red Raspberry Vinaigrette
Raspberry vinaigrette with jam is a very easy, flavor-filled dressing that goes with any kind of salad. Only three ingredients! I like to use it with romaine, feta, toasted pecans, bacon, and red onion.
Loquat Chicken
You'll want to try this recipe for loquats if you have a loquat tree in your backyard or know someone who does. Use up those seemingly endless loquats by making this tart, spicy chicken. Loquats are very much a seasonal fruit — you can only find them from late spring to early summer. This recipe would work with pork too, and it pairs very well with rice.
Easy Spring Rolls (Air Fried)
This is a simple recipe for air fryer spring rolls. They're easy to cook with this method but you could cook them in the oven also. I like to serve them with sweet chile sauce.
