Looking at the ingredients for this recipe you may think, that’s an odd combination. But trust me when I tell you, the results had me going to my refrigerator after ten o’clock last night to munch on some of the sausage. Use whatever type of sausage you wish, I used a chicken beef sausage. Prep all of the ingredients before cooking as things come together quickly. This recipe serves 6.

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 (16-ounce package of Polish sausage, cut into 1-inch squares
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 large green bell pepper, cut into 1-inch squares
  • 3/4 fresh pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into chunks (or buy fresh packaged chunks)
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/3 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons cider vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic

DIRECTIONS

Step 1

Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir sausage, onion, and green bell pepper until vegetables start to become tender, about 8 minutes; add pineapple and cook, stirring occasionally, until the pineapple is hot, about 5 minutes.

Step 2

Beat pineapple juice and cornstarch together in a bowl using a whisk. Stir brown sugar, cider vinegar, soy sauce, and garlic with the pineapple juice until the sugar dissolves into the liquid; pour over sausage mixture and cook until the sauce thickens, 5 to 8 minutes. Serve over rice.
