Sweet and Sour Pork
Makes 4 servings
Ingredients
12 ozs pork tenderloin, cut into thin strips
1 cup bite-sized pineapple cubes
(if using canned, reserve liquid for sauce - I would use natural juice)
1 cup thinly sliced green bell pepper
1 cup thinly sliced white onion
Marinade
2 tbsp rice vinegar (see Rice Vinegar)
2 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
2 tbsp minced fresh ginger
Sauce
1/2 cup pineapple juice
(use reserves if you have it from the canned pineapple)
1 tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tsp cornstarch
Combine the marinade ingredients in a bowl. Add the pork, toss to coat, and
marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes. In another small bowl, combine
the sauce ingredients and mix well. Set aside. Lightly coat a nonstick wok or
frying pan with nonstick cooking spray and place over medium-high heat. Add
the pork and stir-fry until it is no longer pink (3-4 minutes). Transfer the
pork to a bowl and set aside. Recoat the pan with nonstick cooking spray and
reduce the heat to medium. Add the bell pepper and onion, and sauté until
they begin to soften (2-3 minutes). Return the cooked pork to the pan along
with pineapple and sauce. Bring the ingredients to a boil, then remove the pan
from the heat. Serve hot over rice (additional Points for rice).
