Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless pork loin chops
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 0.5 tsp paprika
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 red bell pepper, diced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, diced
- 1.5 cups pineapple chunks (fresh or canned, drained)
- 3 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
- 1 tbsp honey
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 2 green onions, sliced
- 2 cups cooked jasmine rice (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Pat the pork chops dry with paper towels and cut them into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, mix the salt, black pepper, and paprika. Sprinkle the seasoning mixture evenly over the pork pieces.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil. Once the oil is hot, add the seasoned pork pieces to the skillet. Sear the pork for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until browned and cooked through. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the red and yellow bell peppers. Sauté for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the peppers are slightly softened.
Add the pineapple chunks to the skillet and continue to cook for 2 minutes, allowing the pineapple to caramelize slightly.
Lower the heat to medium and stir in the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, honey, and minced garlic. Cook the sauce for 1-2 minutes, stirring continuously, until it thickens slightly.
Return the cooked pork to the skillet and toss to coat in the sauce. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, allowing all the flavors to meld together.
Top the dish with sliced green onions and serve immediately over jasmine rice, if desired.
