A simple and sweet take on the traditional Asian wok dish, this recipe combines savory strips of pork with pineapple chunks and a medley of vegetables, all cooked up in a no-fuss stir-fry sauce.
Ingredients
- 1 c. long-grain white rice
- 1 package refrigerated vegetable medley (broccoli, baby carrots and cauliflower)
- 1 can pineapple slices
- 12 oz. thin-cut, boneless pork chops
- 1/2 c. stir-fry sauce
- 2 tbsp. canola oil
Instructions
- Cook the rice according to package directions.
- Meanwhile, cut the broccoli and cauliflower into small florets. Cut the carrots lengthwise in 3 strips. Drain the pineapple (reserve the juice) and cut into 1/2-in. pieces.
- In a medium bowl, toss the pork with 2 Tbsp of the stir-fry sauce. Heat 1 Tbsp oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook, tossing often until browned, 2 to 3 minutes; transfer to a plate.
- Wipe out the skillet and heat the remaining Tbsp oil over medium-high heat. Add the vegetables and cook, tossing, for 3 minutes. Add the pineapple juice and remaining stir-fry sauce and bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, until the vegetables are just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the pork and pineapple and toss to heat through. Serve over the rice.
