Sweet and Sour Pork Chops recipe

If you can’t escape to the islands, why not bring the islands to your table? Pineapples and pork chops are cooked together to create a fruity stewed dish that will make you feel like the vacation has come to you.

Ingredients:

½ cup sugar
1/3 cup white vinegar
6 tablespoons canned pineapple juice
1 tablespoon corn starch
2 teaspoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 lean boneless pork chops
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Directions:

  1. In a small saucepan, combine the sugar, vinegar, pineapple juice, corn starch, and soy sauce. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer and cook until clear and thickened, 2 minutes.

  2. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add pork chops, season with salt and pepper, and brown on both sides, 4 to 5 minutes total. Pour sauce over chops, cover, and cook over low heat for 50 minutes, turning frequently.

The sauce on this recipe is absolutely delicious and easy. You could use it for chicken as well. And you can spice it up or down or add garlic. Yummy!!!

It was super easy and really tasty! I got so sidetracked by "turning frequently" that I didn't let the sauce soak in. Only flip 3-5 times

Was really good!! I am allergic to pineapples so I substituted orange juice.

This is a simple and very tasty meal. Have it egg noodles and a few chunks of pineapple.

Loved it! My boyfriend and I got in to such a rut making the samethings over and over but this was a great and very easy thing to make and like everyone else said you can spice it up as well and spice it down!
