INGREDIENTS:
For the Rice:
- 1 C. Brown Rice
- 1 tsp. olive oil or butter
- 2 C. water
For the Stir Fry:
- 2 C. fresh pineapple from 1 whole pineapple
- 1 ½ pounds pork loin roast
- 1 Tbs. olive oil
- 2 Tbs. soy sauce
- 1 tsp. ground ginger
- 3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
- 2 Tbs. fresh lime juice
- 3 Tbs. fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
For the Rice:
- Cook rice in a large saucepan by sautéing rice over medium heat with a teaspoon of olive oil (or butter) for 1 minute.
- Increase heat to high and pour the water over the rice.
- Bring the water to boiling. Cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer rice for 20-30 minutes, or until rice is tender and the water is mostly absorbed; stirring occasionally. (Only a teaspoon or two of water should remain.)
- Fluff rice with a fork, and let stand covered until ready to serve.
For the Stir Fry:
- Peel and core the pineapple. Cut remaining fruit into 1 inch chunks. Set aside.
- Trim any fat from the pork tenderloin. Slice the tenderloin into ½-inch thin strips, about 2-inches long.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat for about a minute, or until hot.
- Once the oil is hot, add pork and sauté it for 3-5 minutes, stirring frequently, until pork is cooked through.
- Add the soy sauce, ginger, and garlic to the skillet, stirring to coat.
- Add pineapple to the pan, and continue stirring for 30 seconds.
- Remove from heat, and stir in the lime juice.
- Serve pork mixture over a bed of brown rice with a wedge of lime. Sprinkle chopped parsley over top, if desired.
