Although sweet and sour is usually considered Chinese, in ancient Greece they had something similar to soy sauce called garos and it was made of fish. If you do not like pork try this recipe with turkey breast.

Ingredients
  • Marinating time: at least three hours
  • 1 kilo boneless pork loin, sliced 1 cm thick
  • ½ cup of extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 can (560 grs) pineapple in juice (cut in quarters and use juice for marinade)
  • 1/4 cup wine vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup water
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 3 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/3 cup of milk
  • 1 medium onion finely chopped
  • 1 ½ glasses of peppers, green, yellow, red, cut in cubes
  • 1 small orange, cut in cubes
  • 1/3 cup of barbecue sauce
  • Serve with rice pilaf.
  • Add butter and parsley

Directions
  1. Cut pork into thin slices, wash and place in a big bowl and marinate with the soy sauce, the vinegar, the pineapple juice, barbecue sauce and the brown sugar for three hours.
  2. Strain meat but reserve the marinade.
  3. In a skillet heat the olive oil and brown meat but do not put too many pieces together as they will not form a crust but will boil. (I fried them in three batches). When fried remove to a sauce pan and sauté the onion and the peppers. Transfer to sauce pan, add marinade, pineapple, salt and pepper and add water to cover. Place lid on sauce pan and when it has boiled lower heat and simmer for an hour. When meat is tender, add orange and stir in and leave it for 5 minutes. Dissolve cornstarch in the milk and stir until sauce is nice and thick.
  4. Half way through cooking the meat prepare pilaf. Boil water, add salt, reduce heat and boil rice for 15 minutes. Strain any excess water and add 1 spoonful of margarine and parsley and mix
  5. With this recipe I participated a T.V. show and you may see details here, including photos and video..
