My children always asked for this wonderful and tangy pork dish when they came home from school for the weekend. Today, they still appreciate the stir-fry's comforting flavor.

Ingredients

1 can (20 ounces) pineapple chunks
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon honey
1/2 teaspoon chicken bouillon granules
1 garlic clove, minced
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 tablespoons canola oil
3/4 pound pork tenderloin, cut into bite-size pieces
1 medium green pepper, thinly sliced
Hot cooked rice

Directions

Drain pineapple, reserving the juice; set pineapple aside. Add enough water to juice to measure 3/4 cup. Combine the cornstarch, soy sauce, honey, bouillon, garlic, pepper and pineapple juice mixture until smooth; set aside.
Heat oil in a large skillet; cook and stir pork and green pepper for 6-8 minutes or until pork is no longer pink and green pepper is crisp-tender.
Stir pineapple juice mixture; add to the skillet with pineapple. Bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened and bubbly. Serve with rice.

Excellent and easy to make. Might have been a little too salty, so I would maybe try with low sodium soy sauce next time.
