Pour oil into a nonstick, 12-inch skillet and brown meat over medium heat.

Whisk the chicken broth, vinegar, tomato paste, and sugar in a small bowl. Add to meat, along with the celery and carrots. Bring to a boil; cover and simmer 15 to 20 minutes. Add corn and red pepper; cover and simmer 10 more minutes. Pork should reach internal temperature of 145°F. Let rest for 3 minutes.
