(no offense RZ!) Per the nutrition facts on the lean pork packaging, there are 4 grams of fat and 180 calories total for the pork; plus the minimal amount the other ingredients contribute. Hence my praise for the low fat healthy recipe. :)

- For the sauce: Whisk the granulated sugar, vinegar, lime juice, fish sauce, garlic, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl; set aside for serving.
- For the pork: Combine the Melt®, fish sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and pepper in a bowl. Combine the marinade and pork in a large zipper-lock bag. Seal the bag tightly, toss to coat the pork, and let the pork marinate in the refrigerator for up to 1 hour.
