A delicious crock pot recipe -I believe it originally came from a cooking magazine, but I'm not sure which one or what month/year. The sauce is flavorful and mild-not obnoxiously sweet like you might imagine Chinese-food type sweet and sour. We served it over rice-yummy Ingredients:
2 tablespoons paprika |
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika |
2 1/2 lbs boneless pork loin roast, cut into 1 in strips |
1 tablespoon oil |
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks |
1 medium onion, chopped |
1 medium green pepper, chopped |
1/4 cup cider vinegar |
3 tablespoons brown sugar |
3 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1/4 cup cold water |
6 cups hot cooked rice (to serve pork on top of) (optional) |
Directions:
1. Place paprika in a large resealable plastic bag.
2. Add pork, a few pieces at a time, shake to coat.
3. In a nonstick skillet, brown pork in oil in batches over medium high heat.
4. Transfer to a 3-qt. slow cooker.
5. Drain pineapple, reserving juices; refrigerate pineapple.
6. Add pineapple juice, onion, green pepper, vinegar, brown sugar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce and salt to slow cooker; mix well.
7. Cover and cook on LOW for 6-8 hrs or until meat is tender.
8. Combine cornstarch and water til smooth; stir into pork mixture.
9. Add pineapple.
10. Cover and cook 30 minute longer til sauce is thickened.
11. Serve over rice if desired.
