The combination of Hawaiian and teriyaki flavors makes this a winning recipe. The crushed pineapple and lime juice complement the sweet flavor of the coconut milk. Using a package of frozen vegetables with teriyaki sauce saves time because all the vegetables are ready with no cutting or chopping.
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 pound pork tenderloin, cut into thin bite-sized strips
1/2 cup coconut milk (from 14-oz. can)
1/4 cup crushed pineapple
2 teaspoons lime juice
1 (1-pound) package frozen stir-fry vegetables and traditional teriyaki sauce meal starter
1/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts
1/4 cup coconut
4 cups hot cooked rice
Heat oil in large skillet or wok over medium-high heat until hot. Add pork strips; cook and stir 5 to 6 minutes or until browned.
Add coconut milk, pineapple and lime juice; mix well. Reduce heat to low; simmer 3 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add frozen sauce and vegetables from meal starter; mix well. Cook 7 to 10 minutes or until vegetables are crisp-tender, stirring frequently. Stir in nuts and coconut. Serve over rice.
