Ingredients
  

  • Stir Fry
  • 1½ pounds pork loin or pork tenderloin thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 cups snap peas
  • 1 red bell pepper sliced
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • Stir Fry Sauce
  • ¼ cup low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • ¼ cup chicken broth or water
  • ½ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes optional
  • Garnish
  • 2 green onions sliced
  • 1 teaspoon sesame seeds

Method
 

  1. Whisk together the soy sauce, honey, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, cornstarch, chicken broth, and red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Set aside.
  2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the pork strips and cook for 4 to 5 minutes until browned and just cooked through. Remove the pork and set aside.
  4. Add the onion and bell pepper to the skillet and cook for 2 minutes.
  5. Add the snap peas and stir-fry for another 3 to 4 minutes until crisp-tender.
  6. Stir in the garlic and ginger and cook for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  7. Return the cooked pork to the skillet.
  8. Pour the prepared sauce over the pork and vegetables.
  9. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens and coats everything evenly.
  10. Sprinkle with sliced green onions and sesame seeds before serving.

Notes

  • Slice the pork thinly for quick cooking.
  • Cook over high heat to keep the vegetables crisp.
  • Fresh ginger and garlic provide the best flavor.
  • Stir the sauce before adding it to the pan.
  • Avoid overcooking the snap peas so they stay bright and crunchy.
