Protein

1 pound Pork tenderloin

Vegetables

1 large Red bell pepper

1 large Green bell pepper

1 medium Onion

Fruits

1 cup Pineapple chunks

Sauce

1 cup Aged soy sauce

1 cup Rice vinegar

1 cup Brown sugar

2 tablespoons Cornstarch

1 cup Water

2 whole Garlic cloves

1 tablespoon Ginger (minced)

Oils

2 tablespoons Tuscany sunflower oil

Method

Preparation

Prepare the Pork

Cut the pork tenderloin into bite-sized cubes. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

Chop Vegetables

Dice the red and green bell peppers and the onion into bite-sized pieces.

Prepare the Sauce

In a bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice vinegar, brown sugar, cornstarch, and water. Stir until smooth. Mince the garlic cloves and add them along with the minced ginger to the sauce.

Cooking

Sauté the Pork

In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork cubes and sauté until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

Add the Vegetables

Add the diced bell peppers and onion to the skillet. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender.

Combine with Sauce

Pour the prepared sauce over the pork and vegetables. Stir well to coat everything evenly. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 5 minutes, or until the sauce thickens.

Add Pineapple

Stir in the pineapple chunks and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.
