“We like this as a quick meal when we’ve been gone all day,” Sharon Ryzner notes from Girard, Ohio. “Add more or less garlic to suit your taste.”
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
3/4 pound boneless lean pork roast, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 can (8 ounces) pineapple chunks, undrained
1/2 cup dark corn syrup
1/3 cup white vinegar
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 cup chopped green pepper (1-inch pieces)
hot cooked rice, optional
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water until smooth; set aside. In a large skillet or wok, cook pork in oil until browned. Add the pineapple, corn syrup, vinegar, ketchup, soy sauce and garlic. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 10 minutes.
2. Add the green pepper; cook for 2 minutes. Stir the cornstarch mixture and stir into pork mixture. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened and green pepper is crisp-tender. Serve over rice if desired. Yield: 2 servings.
