A sweet and savory way to prepare pork chops. I've substituted chicken breasts for the pork chops, and it's worked well that way, too.

My boyfriend LOVES pineapple so I set out to create a main dish that incorporated his favorite food. I serve this over rice seasoned with butter and a soy sauce (1 T butter and 2 t of light soy sauce per cup of uncooked rice). I add them right to the rice cooker in the beginning and it always turns out yummy. Also, when I can find it, I buy a frozen diced onion, red and green pepper mix. Sam's Club carries it occasionally and it's a terrific recipe staple!
