Sweet and Sour Mini Smokies

lisann09's Note:

This is a tasty easy recipe that my husband's family loves, and feeding six boys and one girl from his family they all like, isn't a walk in the park. It's easy to make gluten free as long as you have the right mini smokies on your side. Around the Midwest region I know the Wimmer's Meat Co makes little smokies that are gluten free and rather yummy.

• Total Time: 30 mins
• Prep Time: 15 mins
• Cook Time: 15 mins

Ingredients:

Servings: 4

• 2 tablespoons cornstarch
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 1 (20 ounce) can chunk pineapple, undrained
• 1 tablespoon gluten-free soy sauce
• 1/4 cup vinegar
• 1 lb gluten-free little smokies (Gluten Free, I Like Wimmer's)

Directions:

1. In a 1.5 to 2 quart casserole: combine the cornstarch and brown sugar.
2. Stir in remaining ingredients.
3. Microwave, covered, 13-15 mins or until mixture boils and thickens, stirring halfway.
4. It does have a tendency to boil over in the microwave so you might want to keep an eye on it unless you need to clean your microwave.

This recipe is a winner, according to my sweet n' sour lovin' DH. Just the right amount of tang and sweetness. Since I needed to serve a large crew, I doubled every ingredient except the pineapple--I added 3/4 c. orange juice to provide the liquid that would have been in another can of pineapple. We cut up the smokies into thirds and served it over rice. YUMMY! This is a very fast and easy dish to prepare. In about 30 minutes it was on the table. I made mine on the stove top instead of the microwave. My doubled recipe cost about $6 and easily provided 2 meals. I think next time I will add a bit of ground ginger to give it a little zip. If you like sweet n' sour, you will like this recipe. This will become a regularly served dish in our household.Thanks lisann!
