Serves six

2 pounds pork tenderloin – cut into small cubes

3 TBS ketchup
1 TBS cornstarch
1 medium red onion – chopped
1 medium red bell pepper – chopped

6 garlic cloves – minced
4 TBS peanut or vegetable oil

Rinse and pat dry the pork. Heat a large skillet with 2 TBS of the oil. Brown the pork in batches – making sure to cook it through – and set aside. Wipe the pan.

While the pork is browning, whisk together the pineapple juice, soy sauce, rice wine vinegar, ketchup, sugar and cornstarch. Set aside.

Add the remaining oil to the pan and heat. Add the onion, bell pepper, ginger and garlic cloves. Cook for about 4 minutes – until vegetables are softened but still crisp. Add the pineapple chunks and pork – mix well. Cook for an additional 3 to 4 minutes.

Add the liquid to the pan. Mix well and allow sauce to thicken. Serve with rice and enjoy!
