Here's what you need:

2 pounds pork, lean, cubed
2 tablespoons oil
1 20 oz. cans pineapple chl\nks
1 1/4 cups ketchup
1 tablespoons brown sugar

1 tablespoons cider vinegar
1 large green bell pepper
1 medium onion
3 medium carrots, sliced 1/4 inch

 


Here's how to make it:


In a large skillet, in two batches, saute cubed pork in oil over high heat until browned on all sides.

Drain pineapple chunks, reserving juice. In a medium size saucepan, over medium heat, cook juice from pineapple chunks with ketchup, brown sugar, and vinegar until hot and flavors have blended, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat.

Cut bell pepper and onion into I12-inch pieces. Add these cut vegetables and the carrots to the sweet and sour sauce. Add the browned pork to the vegetables and sauce and then put into a 9"x 13" glass baking dish. Cover with aluminum foil and bake in 350 degree oven for one hour, or until the pork is tender. Remove from oven, add pineapple chunks and allow to cool.
