Since my husband hates leftovers and there are just the two of us, I always try to pare recipes down in both quantity and fat content. This sweet-and-sour pork is such a favorite. My husband happily finishes any leftovers for lunch the next day! Ingredients:
1 cup chicken broth |
1/4 cup uncooked brown rice |
4-1/2 teaspoons cornstarch |
2 tablespoons water |
1 can (8 ounces) unsweetened pineapple chunks, undrained |
1/2 cup 100% raspberry spreadable fruit |
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce |
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder |
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger |
1 pork tenderloin (3/4 pound) |
Directions:
1. In a small saucepan, bring broth and rice to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 30 minutes or until rice is tender.
2. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine cornstarch and water until smooth; set aside. In a saucepan, combine the pineapple and spreadable fruit; cook and stir until spreadable fruit is dissolved. Stir in the soy sauce, garlic powder and ginger. Bring to a boil. Stir cornstarch mixture and stir into pineapple mixture; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Keep warm.
3. Cut pork into 3/4-in.-thick slices. In a nonstick skillet coated with cooking spray, cook pork for 2-3 minutes on each side or until browned. Pour fruit sauce over meat. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 10-12 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Serve with rice. Yield: 2 servings.
