Pineapple Pork Teriyaki Stir-Fry is so much better than take-out. Tender stir-fried pork with pineapple and plenty of veggies in a homemade, spicy ginger and garlic teriyaki sauce. I like having a jar of homemade teriyaki sauce on hand as it really makes this quick and easy dinner perfect for any night of the week! Yields 6 servings.

Pineapple Pork Teriyaki Stir-Fry

I love a good Stir-fry.

Stir-fries are a great way to get a good amount of protein and veggies in. This pineapple pork teriyaki yields over 30 grams of protein per serving and is loaded with my favorite veggies. You can prep the pork and veggies, and make the teriyaki stir-fry sauce in advance so whipping this up is a breeze. Because there’s just something about the ease of a stir-fry meal on those nights that you just don’t feel like cooking.
