👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Make the stir fry sauce (¼ cup low sodium soy sauce, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 2 medium garlic cloves, 1 tablespoon minced ginger, 3 tablespoons pineapple juice, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 2 teaspoons sesame oil, ½ teaspoon kosher salt, and ½ teaspoon black pepper): In a small bowl, whisk all sauce ingredients until smooth, breaking up any clumps of cornstarch.

4. 4Add 1 red bell pepper and 1 green bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Transfer veggies from pan into a bowl and set aside.
5. 5Add another 1-2 tablespoons of oil if your pan is looking dry. Add 1 pork tenderloin strips to pan and sear for 2-3 minutes per side until cooked through and lightly golden.
6. 6When pork is cooked, return veggies to the pan and add 1 cup pineapple chunks.
