A nice high protein packed meal, with a great taste!

INGREDIENTS

  • 12 oz. boneless pork loin, trimmed of all visible fat
  • 1 can (8 oz.) pineapple chunks in juice
  • 2 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp. cornstarch
  • 1/2 tsp. salt to taste
  • 1/4 tsp. freshly ground black pepper to taste
  • 1 tbsp. canola or peanut oil, divided
  • 2 cups fresh or frozen broccoli florets
  • 1 medium carrot, thinly sliced
  • 1 medium onion, cut vertically into 1/2-inch slices
  • 8 ears canned baby corn
  • 1 garlic clove, chopped
  • 1 tsp. minced fresh ginger


DIRECTIONS

  1. Freeze pork until firm, about 20 minutes. Cut pork into 1/4-inch by 2- or 3-inch strips. Set aside.
  2. Drain juice from pineapple into a small bowl, reserving pineapple. Add Worcestershire sauce and cornstarch to juice. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Set aside.
  3. In wok, heat 2 teaspoons oil over high heat. Add pork and stir-fry until white. Add broccoli, carrot, onion, corn, and reserved pineapple. Stir-fry until broccoli and carrots are brightly colored, about 2 minutes. Transfer to plate. Set aside.
  4. Add remaining 1 teaspoon oil to wok. Add garlic and ginger. Stir-fry until fragrant, about 10 seconds, taking care not to burn them. Stir pineapple juice mixture. Add to wok with meat mixture. Stir-fry until liquid has thickened and meat is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes. Serve immediately.
