- 2 tablespoons vinegar

- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- 1 medium green sweet pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces (1 cup)

- Stir sauce. Add sauce to the center of the wok. Cook and stir until thickened and bubbly. Return cooked vegetables to the wok. Add pineapple chunks. Stir all ingredients together to coat with sauce. Cook and stir for 2 minutes more or until heated through. Stir in orange slices. Serve immediately over hot cooked rice. Garnish with additional orange sections, if desired. Makes 4 servings.
