340 grams pork
1/4 cup cornstarch
1 egg beaten
1/4 cup flour
salt and pepper
canola oil for frying
1/2 cup pineapple chunks
1/2 red bell pepper
1/2 green bell pepper
1/4 yellow onion
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 teaspoons reduced sodium soy sauce
1 clove garlic minced
Cut peppers, onion and pork into 2 cm chunks. To make the sauce,
whisk together the sugar, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, ketchup,
soy sauce and garlic into a small bowl.
Pour enough canola oil into a pan that is comes up from the bottom about
3 cm. .Heat the oil on medium high to high heat.
Add the cornstarch to a large bowl. Add the chicken pieces and toss until
all the pieces are well coated. Dip the pieces into the egg, then into the
seasoned flour before adding to the hot oil. Add chicken in batches so as
not to have more than a single layer of it in the oil at a time
When done cooking remove all but a tablespoon of the oil. Add the bell
peppers, onion and pineapple and cook for 1-2 minutes, until crisp-tender.
Add the sauce back in and stir to coat the pieces and cook for 30 seconds
to help the garlic warm through. Add the chicken pieces back in and stir
until the sauce has thickened and bubbling.
Serve immediately, with optional garnishes of sesame seeds or green onions.
