Number of Servings: 1

Ingredients

    12 oz. boneless pork loin

    2 Tbsp. flour

    1 Tbsp. canola oil

    1 medium onion, sliced

    1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped

    1 clove garlic, minced

    1 small chili pepper, seeded and minced

    1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce

    1/2 tsp. ground ginger

    1 can (8 oz.) sliced pineapple in juice

    1 large tomato, seeded and diced

    1/2 medium cucumber, peeled, seeded and diced

    3/4 tsp. salt

    1/4 tsp. freshly ground pepper


Directions

1. Trim all visible fat from meat. Cut into 1-inch cubes. Toss with flour to coat.

2. Generously coat deep, medium skillet with cooking spray. Set over medium-high heat. Brown meat, turning it to color on all sides, about 5 minutes. Transfer meat to plate.

3. Heat oil in pan. Sauté onion, green pepper, garlic and chili pepper until onion is translucent, about 4 minutes. Return meat to pan. Add 1 cup water, Worcestershire sauce, ginger, salt and pepper. Drain liquid from pineapple into pan. Cover, reduce heat and simmer 30 minutes.

4. Stack pineapple slices and cut into 8 sections. Add fruit, tomato and cucumber to stew. Simmer, uncovered, 10 minutes. This stew keeps 2 to 3 days, covered, in the refrigerator.

Makes 4 servings.

    This was FABULOUS!! I will make again. Simple, quick and easy-breezy. I would rename this recipe to: Carribean Pork w/pineapple Stir Fry. I think the "stew" turns some people off. - 3/22/09

    I just made it, DELICIOUS! (I used 2 small jalapenos for the chili pepper) And I'm not a big fan of onions, but it all tasted so well together. - 1/2/09

    This was delicious!! My family loved it. They have asked me twice to make it. The first time I made it I served it over quinoa. Yummy! I have even passed the recipe on to friends. - 11/5/07
