Pork Bites with Apples

This is a low GI meal and I was really impressed with how filling and yummy it was! The kids even ate some, which is high praise. I served this with steamed fresh green beans, cauliflower, and boiled new potatoes.

2 TB olive oil
1 1/4 lbs lean pork loin, cut into bite sized pieces
1 onion, coarsely chopped
2 tsp grated lemon rind
1 C apple juice
2/3 C water
2 crisp eating apples, such as Granny smith, cored and sliced
3 TB chopped fresh parsley

1. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown pork. Transfer pork to a platter.
2. Add onions to the pan, and brown lightly. Remove onions to the platter and drain any fat from the skillet. Return to heat and stir in lemon rind, apple juice, and water and boil for about 3 minutes. Return pork and onions to the skillet and cook over low to medium heat for about 25 minutes or until tender.

Add apples to the pan and cook for about 5 minutes. Transfer pork, onions, and apples to a warmed serving dish. Sprinkle with parsley.
