Ingredients

  • 1 tsp canola oil
  • 12 oz pork loin
  • 1 medium (2-1/2" dia) onion
  • 2 clove garlic
  • 1 medium (approx 2-3/4" long, 2-1/2 dia.) bell pepper, red
  • 1 pepper, large (3-3/4" long, 3" dia) bell pepper, yellow
  • 2 fruit (2-5/8" dia) orange
  • 2 fruit (2" dia) lime
  • 1/2 tbsp sweet red chili sauce
  • 1 tsp curry powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 1/2 cup RICE, BROWN, MEDIUM-GRAIN, RAW
  • 2 medium (3" dia) apple
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 3 cup Brussels sprouts

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Trim and half Brussels sprouts, set aside. Chop onion, mince garlic. Seed and slice peppers. Juice oranges and limes, separately. Cook brown rice.
  • Cut pork into chunks.  Heat a large skillet and add canola oil. Brown pork cubes on all sides until browned, about 5 minutes. Then add onions and garlic, cook for 1-2 minutes longer.
  • Add peppers, orange and lime juices, hot sauce, curry powder and salt. Cook over low heat for 30 minutes, or until pork is tender.
  • While pork cooks, heat another skillet with 1/4 cup (starting with only 1/8 cup, add more if needed) olive oil. Add Brussels sprouts and cook undisturbed for 3-5 minutes, allowing to begin to brown. Then place them in an over-safe dish, and cook an additional 20 minutes. 
  • Serve pork on top of cooked brown rice, with Brussels sprouts, and apples. (optional- chop and cook apples with 1/2 cup water and some cinnamon in a microwave safe dish for about 4-5 minutes.)
