Ingredients

• 1 pound boneless pork loin chops, cut into ¼-inch slices, trimmed
• 1 cup white or brown rice
• 7 or 8 seedless tangerines or 3 navel oranges, divided*
• 3 T soy sauce
• 1 T honey
• 1 T cornstarch
• 4 teaspoons canola oil
• ½ large red onion, halved and cut into ½-inch slices

You can also use 2/3 cup tangerine or orange juice, plus 2 tangerines or 1 orange. In that case, skip the step below that instructs you to juice the fruit.

Directions

• Prepare rice according to package directions. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, until ready to serve.
• While rice is cooking, halve and squeeze 5 or 6 tangerines or 2 oranges to yield 2/3 cup of juice. In a medium bowl, whisk together juice, soy sauce, honey and cornstarch. Set aside. Remove peel off remaining 2 tangerines or 1 orange. Cut half of peel into

Add pork and stir-fry until pork is cooked through and onion is crisp-tender, 3-4 minutes. Add juice mixture and fruit and cook, stirring occasionally until mixture comes to a boil and thickens, about 1 minute.
• Serve stir-fry over rice sprinkled with cilantro, if desired.
