ingredients

• 1⁄2 lb chopped pork tenderloin
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 garlic clove, chopped
• 1 scallion, chopped (green part)
• 1 tablespoon water

• 1 tablespoon tamari soy sauce

• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 (16 1/3 ounce) can jumbo biscuits (Grands)

directions

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and prepare 8 regular muffin cups by spraying with nonstick cooking spray. Cook pork, oil and garlic over med-high heat until pork is cooked through.
2. Stir in scallions.
3. Mix water and cornstarch, then add to pork.
4. Stir in tamari, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, and honey.
5. On a work surface, press each biscuit until it is about 5 inches round.
6. Place a heaping tablespoon of pork mixture in the center of each biscuit and press the edges together at the top (so it looks like a Hershey’s Kiss), then place the biscuit in the muffin tin seam side up.
7. Bake for 12 minutes.
