This tasty recipe features delicious pineapple and tender pork in a sweet sauce served over rice. It makes for a great summer-time or tropical-inspired meal! You will want to marinate the pork for at least 1 hour, so plan ahead when making this meal.

Ingredients

• 1 pound pork tenderloin, cut into pieces
• 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
• 1/2 tsp pepper
• 1 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 cup chopped pineapple
• 2/3 cup soy sauce
• 2 tsp. minced ginger
• 4 tbsp. brown sugar
• 2 tbsp. chili paste or sriracha

Process

1. Prepare the pork: cut the pork tenderloin into smallish pieces. Put it into a resealable container or a ziploc bag.
2. Prepare the marinade: mix the soy sauce, minced ginger, brown sugar, and chili paste together.
3. Pour only half of the marinade over the pork. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Reserve the remaining marinade.
4. When the pork is done marinating, place a large skillet on your stovetop and turn the heat to medium-high.
   • This is a good time to start preparing your rice. We use boil-in-bag rice for convenience; you can do whatever you like.
5. Spray the skillet with nonstick spray or put a tablespoon of oil in the skilled. Add the marinated pork to the skillet. Stir-fry for about two minutes.
6. Add the pineapple to the skillet. Cook for another minute or two.
7. Add the remaining marinade to the pan. Stir well. Simmer for about 3-5 minutes until the sauce has thickened a little bit.
8. Remove the pan from the heat. Serve the pork mix over the rice.
9. Enjoy!
