2 tablespoons maple syrup
1/2 tablespoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 can SPAM classic
Whisk the soy sauce, maple syrup, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper together in a small bowl. Preheat a large pan over medium heat with the oil. Slice the SPAM into 6 equal slices. Brush the glaze onto one side of the SPAM slices. Add them to the hot pan, glaze side down. Don't overcrowd the pan. Fry in batches as small as two, if necessary. Fry until golden brown and crunchy, about 2 minutes. In the meantime, brush glaze onto the side facing up. When browned, flip the SPAM and reglaze the browned side. Once the other side is browned, flip once more and brush again with glaze. Serve hot.
