(from castro15’s recipe box)

Categories: Meals

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup rice vinegar
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 lb. boneless pork tenderloin, cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1/2 pineapple--peeled, cored and cut into bite-size pieces
  • 5 scallions, cut into bite-size pieces, plus 1 scallion, thinly sliced
  • 3 tbsp. canola oil
  • 2 tsp toasted sesame seeds
  • 4 cups cooked rice, for serving
  • 1 cup frozen shelled edamame, thawed
  • 1 avocado, cubed

Directions

  1. Arrange a rack under the broiler; preheat to high. If using bamboo skewers, fill a baking dish with an inch of water and soak eight 8-inch skewers in the water for at least 5 minutes. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with foil.

  2. In a large bowl, whisk the vinegar, honey and soy sauce. Pour half the sauce into a small bowl and set aside. Add the pork to the large bowl. Let marinate for 30 minutes.

  3. Thread the pork, pineapple and scallion pieces onto the skewers. Arrange the skewers on the baking sheet; season all over with salt and pepper. Drizzle with the oil. Broil until the pork and pineapple start to brown in places, about 4 minutes.

  4. Turn the skewers over and broil until the pork is cooked through, about 4 minutes. Transfer the skewers to a plate. Pour any juices from the baking sheet into the small bowl of reserved sauce. Stir the sesame seeds and sliced scallions into the sauce.

  5. Divide the rice among bowls. Top with the pork, pineapple, and scallions and the edamame and avocado. Drizzle each bowl with some of the sauce.
