Ingredients

2 tablespoons oil

2 eggs, lightly beaten

1/2 cup cornstarch (optional)

1 pound pork (butt, shoulder, loin or tenderloin), cut into 1 inch pieces

1/2 red pepper, sliced

1 cup pineapple, sliced

3 tablespoons honey

3 tablespoons rice vinegar or white vinegar

3 tablespoons ketchup (optional)

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon chill sauce such as sambal oelek or sriracha

1/4 cup pineapple juice or chicken broth

1 clove garlic, grated

1 teaspoon ginger, grated

1 tablespoon water

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 teaspoon sesame oil

1/4 cup green onion, sliced

Directions

Heat the oil in a pan over medium-high heat, dip the pork in the egg, dredge in the cornstarch, add it to the pan, and cook until lightly golden brown and crispy, about 2-4 minutes per side before setting aside. (Work in batches.)

Add the red pepper and pineapple and cook until just tender but still crisp, about 2 minutes.

Add the mixture of the honey, vinegar, ketchup, chill sauce, pineapple juice, garlic, ginger and the mixture of the water and the corn starch, toss to coat and cook until the sauce thickens, about a minute.

Remove from heat, mix in the sesame oil and serve garnished with sliced green onions.
