Thai-Style Pork.....legal???

I found this recipe today and I want to make sure it's legal before I make it.  I'm pretty sure the only things I need to change are the peanut butter (to natural) and the rice (to brown or none).  I wasn't too sure about the teriyaki sauce though.  Does this look legal?  Does anybody see anything else that needs to be changed?  It sounds so yummy.  TIA







Thai-Style Pork

2 pounds boneless pork loin chops
1/4 cup teriyaki sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup cold water
1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
Hot cooked rice
1/2 cup chopped green onions
1/2 cup dry roasted peanuts
Lime juice, optional
Place pork chops in a 3-qt. slow cooker. Combine the teriyaki sauce, vinegar, pepper flakes and garlic; pour over meat. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or until meat is tender. Remove pork and cut into bite-size pieces; keep warm. Strain cooking juices into a large saucepan. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into juices.  Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Stir in peanut butter; add meat. 
Serve with rice. Sprinkle with onions and peanuts. Drizzle
with lime juice if desired.

Yield: 6 servings.

I use Whole Foods brand of teriyaki sauce which has less than 3 grams of sugar per serving.

I would also cut back on the amount of peanuts you sprinkle on top -- maybe just do 1/4 cup and chop them to spread them out?

*Bwaa haa haaa* (That's my sneaky, evil mom laugh!) Glad that they ate it. Maybe I'll have to try it. I have a *ridiculous* amount of pork. I need to go find some new pork recipes!
