Pineapple Pork Stir-Fry with Peppers

Pineapple Pork Stir Fry with red bell peppers and avocado in a skillet
  • Serves: 6
  • Prep Time:  5 min
  • Cook Time:  20 min

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds pork tenderloin, cut into 2-inch cubes
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2/3 cup low-sodium soy sauce or tamari
  • 1/2 cup seasoned rice vinegar
  • 1/4 cup honey (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 red bell pepper, diced
  • 1 small pineapple, cored and diced
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 bunch green onions, thinly sliced
  • 1 large avocado, diced
  • Coconut rice, for serving (optional)

Method

  1. Season the pork all over with the salt.

  2. Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat. Once the oil is glistening, working in batches, add the pork and cook, stirring, until golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer to a plate.

  3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, honey, if desired, ginger, and cornstarch. Whisk to mix well.

  4. Add the bell pepper, pineapple, garlic, and the white and light green parts of the green onions to the skillet. Cook, stirring, until the pineapple begins to soften and release some of its juices, about 5 minutes.

  5. Return the pork and any collected juices to the pan. Add the soy sauce mixture, bring to a boil, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens, about 2 minutes.

  6. Remove the pan from the heat. Add the dark green parts of the green onion and avocado. Serve as is or over coconut rice.
