    List of Ingredients




    1 sprays cooking spray
    1 1/2 pound lean pork tenderloin, cut into thin strips
    15 oz canned unsweetened pineapple chunks
    1/2 cup water
    1/3 cup rice wine vinegar
    1/4 cup packed brown sugar
    2 Tbsp cornstarch
    1/2 tsp table salt
    1 Tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
    2 medium green pepper(s), sliced
    1 small onion(s), sliced
    3 cup cooked brown rice, kept warm

    Recipe



    Heat a nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray over medium-high heat.

    Add pork and cook until golden brown, about 8 to 10 minutes; remove from skillet and set aside. Drain any remaining fat from skillet.

    Drain pineapple chunks, reserving juice; set aside.

    Combine water, vinegar, sugar, cornstarch, salt, soy sauce and reserved pineapple juice in a small bowl; add to skillet and cook until sauce is slightly thickened, about 2 minutes. Add pork; cook covered over low heat until meat is tender, stirring occasionally, about 30 minutes.

    Add peppers, onion and pineapple chunks; cook 5 minutes. Serve over rice. Yields about 1 cup of pork and 1/2 cup of rice per serving.

    NOTE: Enjoy this Chinese favorite from the comfort of your home and without all the calories of the restaurant version. Quick tip: Keep the pork slightly frozen so it�s easier to slice into thin strips.
