Prep/Total Time: 25 min.

Ingredients

2 boneless pork loin chops (about 5 ounces each), cut into 1-inch cubes
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons Crisco® Pure Olive Oil
4 ounces fresh snow peas
1/4 cup sliced sweet red pepper
2 green onions, sliced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 to 2 teaspoons ground ginger
3/4 cup water
1/4 cup peanut butter
1 tablespoon sugar
1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper
Hot cooked rice, optional

Directions

Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. In a skillet, cook pork in oil until juices run clear. Remove and keep warm. In the same skillet, saute the peas, red pepper, onions, garlic and ginger for 2 minutes. Return pork to the pan.
In a small bowl, combine the water, peanut butter, sugar, soy sauce and cayenne until smooth. Pour over pork mixture; bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 1 minute. Serve over rice if desired. Yield: 2 servings.
