  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
  1 1/2         pounds  boneless pork loin -- cut into 1" cubes
  6                     garlic cloves -- crushed
  1           teaspoon  salt
     1/2      teaspoon  black pepper
  1           teaspoon  dry oregano
     1/2           cup  sour orange juice -- or
     1/4           cup  orange juice -- and
     1/4           cup  lime juice
     1/4           cup  olive oil
 

Preparation:

Place pork cubes in a self sealing plastic bag; mix together remaining ingredients and pour over pork cubes; seal bag and refrigerate overnight. Remove pork from marinade, discarding marinade, and place pork cubes in a shallow baking pan. Roast in a 350 degree F oven for 25 to 30 minutes, until pork is tender. Remove to serving platter and serve hot. Menu suggestion: These crispy pork cubes are traditionally served with fried and mashed plantains (known as fufu in Cuba or mofongo in Puerto Rico). However, for a quick and easy meal, serve the Masitas de Cerdo with a fragrant rice pilaf, sauteed peppers and onions, fresh or purchased salsa and some warmed tortillas.
