Great recipe! I started out to made half a recipe but made the whole amount of the sauce. I couldn't find pear nectar, so I pureed a can of pears in their own juice instead. I marinated the meat in a little soy sauce and rice wine vinegar. I added more sliced veggies (sweet onion, fresh fennel bulb)and added 1/4 tsp. Five Spice Powder for zip. This is definitely a keeper! Thank you for sharing!
