Sweet and Sour Ground Pork

Step 1

Make the sweet and sour sauce by adding water, pineapple juice, sugar, apple cider vinegar, soy sauce, salt and corn starch to a saucepan. Whisk together and cook over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil. Continue whisking until sauce is thickened. Remove from heat and set aside.

Step 2

Dice the onions and bell peppers and add to a skillet with olive oil. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring often until vegetables are softened, about 5 minutes.

Step 3

Add the ground pork to the skillet and season with garlic, salt and pepper. Crumble pork as it cooks with a wooden spoon, stirring occasionally until cooked through and no longer pink.

Step 4

Pour sweet and sour sauce over the pork mixture and add the drained pineapples. Cook for 5 minutes until sauce is bubbly.

Step 5

Serve over rice and garnish with sesame seeds and cilantro.
