Mom's Sweet & Sour Pork or Chicken

I made this tonight with chicken, but pork works well too. Justin kept commenting on how delicious it was throughout the meal. I felt like a cook tonight.

Mom's Sweet & Sour Pork or Chicken
from the kitchen of Carol R Cheesman

• 6-8 pork chops or 4-5 chicken breasts
• 1 can cream of mushroom soup
• 1/2 can of water (or chicken/beef stock)
• 1 can mushrooms (optional)
• 1 large green pepper, sliced
  
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 1/3-1/2 c. brown sugar (I used 1/2. I was going for taste, not health this time.)
• Pineapple chunks (optional)
  

Brown meat in electric fry pan. Mix remaining ingredients and pour over meat. Simmer for 2 hours or put in Dutch oven and bake at 350 for 1 1/2 - 2 hours. (Carol's preference). Add pineapples if desired. Serve over rice.
