To a large skillet, add 1 tablespoon oil, pork slices, season with salt and pepper to taste, and cook over medium-high heat for about 2 to 3 minutes on each side or until done. Cook in batches if skillet can’t hold all the pork at once, adding additional oil if necessary. Remove cooked pork from skillet; set aside. Add sauce mixture to skillet and bring to a boil over medium heat. Cook for about 3 to 5 minutes or until mixture reduces slightly. Return pork to skillet and turn to coat with all sides.
