Pacific Stir Fry

A few nights ago (the baked pear night) I decided to create a new stir fry recipe... It was a lot of prep for a weeknight meal, but worth it. Chris and I both really enjoyed it!

Pacific Stir Fry

1 pound pork loin, cut into 1 inch cubes
1 sweet potato, chunked
1 cup of pineapple chunks
1/8 cup of pineapple juice
1/8 cup of lemon juice
1/2 cup of honey
1/2 large red onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
1 red or yellow pepper, chopped
salt and pepper
1/2 lime, sliced thinly

Combine honey and juices. Salt and pepper to taste. Using a basting brush, cover the pork with the honey mixture. Next, lightly oil a large grill pan or frying pan and beginning cooking pork on medium heat. Five minutes later, pour half of the remaining honey mixture into the pan and stir. After another five minutes, toss in all veggies and pineapple chunks and the rest of the honey mixture. Cook until pork is cooked through and the pineapple begins to brown. Garnish with lime slices and serve on a bed of lightly salted white rice.
