Alright let me first say that we apologize for a lack of posts lately but we have been busy ladies. I won't bore you with our excuses we will just move on. We hope you like our revamping of our blog. We were feeling that it looked a little drab for who we are. If we could figure it out we would have a flashing neon sign for our blog header but we are just learning. Maybe someday!
Alright so on to the sweet and sour part....
When I was first married I explored a lot of recipes and had a wide variety of meals. It seems as though our meal plan has narrowed some and now I am lucky to get something more than cold cereal on the table. One of the recipes that I used to make all the time and we loved was Sweet and Sour chicken . It is quick and delicious! So without further adieu...
Sweet and Sour Chicken/pork
1 can pineapple tidbits in juice
1/3 cup vinegar
3/4 cup water
2 T. soy sauce
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 T. lemon juice
1/4-1/2 tsp. garlic powder
salt and pepper to taste
Chicken or pork cut into bite size pieces and cooked
Drain the pineapple, save the pineapple for later and put the juice into a medium sauce pan. Add the rest of the ingredients and bring to a boil. In a small bowl mix 2 Tablespoons of cornstarch with a little water; add to sauce mixture. Cook until thickened. Add pineapple and desired meat. You can also add green or red peppers and onion if desired. I recently made this with fresh pineapple and red peppers. It was DELICIOUS! I had to buy just pineapple juice for the sauce but it was worth it! I usually double the sauce for this recipe we like sauce, we are saucy people...lol!
