Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Pork tenderloin
- 4 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Cornstarch
- 1.5 cups Pineapple chunks (canned or fresh)
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 1 medium Green bell pepper
- 1 large Carrot
- 1 medium Onion
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Honey
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 cup Water
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 3 cups Cooked jasmine rice (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Thinly slice the pork tenderloin into bite-sized strips. In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of soy sauce with the cornstarch. Toss the pork strips in this mixture and set aside to marinate for 10 minutes while preparing other ingredients.
Chop the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, and carrot into thin strips. Dice the onion into medium chunks, and finely mince the garlic.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated pork and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, until browned and cooked through. Remove the pork from the wok and set aside.
In the same wok, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the onions, garlic, carrots, and bell peppers, and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they soften slightly but maintain their crispness.
Add the pineapple chunks to the wok and stir to combine with the vegetables.
In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and water. Pour this sauce mixture into the wok. Season with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Return the cooked pork to the wok and toss everything together. Let it cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld and the sauce to thicken slightly.
Remove from heat and serve hot, either on its own or over a bed of cooked jasmine rice.
