Low-Cal Sweet & Sour Pork
- Number of Servings: 6
Ingredients
1 lb pkg lean boneless pork loin chops1 large onion, chopped3 - 4 cloves Garlic, minced1 Tbsp Peanut Oil3/4 C. Sweet & Sour Sauce (Fa Ling is my favorite)1 Tbsp Reduced Sodium Soy Sauce (I use Kikkoman)1 C. Celery, sliced1 C. Carrots, sliced8 oz Pkg Mushrooms, sliced1 Large Red Bell Pepper, cut in strips1 Large Green Bell Pepper, cut in strips1 can water chestnuts (sliced)2 C fresh pineapple, cut in bite-sized chunks2 Tbsp Cider Vinegar1/4 C water
(I make this in a non-stick coated Wok so I don't have to use much oil)
Cut pork into small, bite-sized pieces, and onion into large chunks. Heat oil in wok, and cook port & onion until pork is no longer pink, and onions are translucent. Add minced garlic, soy sauce, and sweet & sour sauce. Heat until sauce bubbles. Remove from heat & reserve -- wipe sauce remnants out of wok. Put water & vinegar in wok, and add remaining vegetables & pineapple. Heat over med-high heat until vegetables are as done as you like (we like some crunch left), stirring frequently. (I also use a lid to keep liquid from evaporating too much) Stir in pork mixture, heat and stir until all is heated through.
This can be served "as is", or with rice, chow mein noodles, or whatever you prefer. The servings are large, so you may save even more calories if you call this 8 servings instead of 6.
