Pork in Peanut Sauce

Pork in Peanut Sauce

A quick, easy, delicious pork with peanut sauce! This dish can be served over a bed of chopped romaine for a low-carb meal or noodles for the traditionalists. The oil you use makes all the difference: the peanuttier, the better. An obscure brand is usually better than a cheaper, mass-market variety.
