Sweet N' Sour Pork


I love sweet n sour chicken....but i was out of chicken. I was out of beef, fish...matter of fact the only meat in the house was a lemon herb marinated pork tenderloin. I did not want that. I wanted sweet n sour chicken. So i figured pork, the other white meat. 

Sweet n Sour Pork

1.3 lbs of pork tenderloin
1 cup corn starch
1 tbs garlic powder
1 tsp paprika
1 egg
1/3 cup canola oil

Sauce

1/2 cup ketchup
4 oz pineapple
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tbs corn starch
3 tbs brown sugar
1/4 cup cider vinager

This is actually a pretty easy recipe. Heat the oil in a pan until it begins to smoke. While it is heating cube the meat into 1" pieces. Toss the meat in the one egg to coat.  In a separate bowl  mix corn starch, garlic powder, paprika. Toss the pork and coat it in this mixture. Place into heated oil and brown on all sides.

While browning your meat, put all of the sauce ingredients in a sauce pan and heat to a simmer. Turn off the heat and set aside.

Remove the meat from the oil and drain on a few pieces of paper towel.  Toss meat in the sauce to coat. and serve over rice.
