Ingredients

  • 1 lb boneless pork loin, cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 medium yellow onion, diced
  • 2 McIntosh apples, peeled, cored, and diced
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
  • 2 Tablespoons canola oil
  • ½ cup golden raisins or currants

Instructions

  1. In a large pot, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add curry powder and cook about one minute. Curry should be very fragrant. Add pork to pan and sear.
  2. Add onions to pork and reduce heat to medium. While onions are cooking, warm chicken broth in a separate pot.
  3. When onions are translucent, add apples. Cook until onions are lightly browned and apples have begun to soften.
  4. Pour chicken broth over pork, onion, and apple mixture and reduce heat to low. Cover and simmer for 35-40 minutes. Season with additional curry powder if desired.
  5. If desired, warm pitas in a toaster oven. Stuff pitas with pork mixture and serve!
