mexican, chili, pork, sauces, diabetic

3 lb boneless lean pork butt
2 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 large onions, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced or pressed
6 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon cumin
1 1/2 teaspoon oregano
1 1/4 cup water
1 teaspoon honey
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoon tomato paste

Serve this traditional Mexican entree as a filling for corn or flour tortillas or as an accompaniment to rice and beans. Garnish with tomato slices and fresh cilantro for a colorful meal. Trim and discard all fat from the meat and cut into 1-inch cubes. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high, and cook meat, a few pieces at a time, until brown. Push meat to one side of the pan, add onion, garlic, chili powder, cumin and oregano; cook until onion is limp. Stir in water, honey, salt and tomato paste. Simmer, covered, until pork is tender, about 1 hour. Skim off fat and discard. To serve, fill warm corn or flour tortillas (made with margarine) with meat mixture. Include rice or beans, if desired, and garnish.
