Preparation

Step 1

Partially freeze pork. Cut across the grain into 2 1/2" x 2 1/4" strips. Set aside. Preheat a wok or large skillet over high heat; add oil. Stir fry bell pepper and onion in oil for 2-3 mins or until crisp tender. Remove from wok. Add more oil, if necessary. Add half the pork to wok and stir fry until browned. Remove pork; stir fry the remaining pork. Return all pork to wok; keep warm.

Drain pineapple, reserving juice. In a small saucepan, combine the juice, brown sugar, vinegar, cornstarch and soy sauce. Bring to a boil; cook 1 minute or until thickened, stirring constantly.

Return peppers and onion to wok. Stir in pineapple and pineapple juice mixture. Cook and stir until heated through. Serve with rice, if desired.
