Ingredients
- 1 pound Pork tenderloin
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, grated
- 6 cups Low-sodium chicken broth
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Fish sauce
- 4 cups Zucchini noodles (zoodles)
- 2 Green onions, sliced
- 2 cups Spinach leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0 to taste Salt
- 0 to taste Black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Start by preparing the pork tenderloin. Trim any excess fat and slice it into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick. Set aside.
Step 2
In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 3
Add the sliced pork tenderloin to the pot. Sauté for 3-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pork is browned on all sides and cooked through.
Step 4
Pour in the chicken broth, soy sauce, and fish sauce. Stir to combine, and bring the mixture to a gentle boil.
Step 5
Once boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer and let the soup cook for about 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Step 6
Add the zucchini noodles (zoodles) to the pot. Cook for 3-4 minutes until they are tender but still slightly firm.
Step 7
Stir in the sliced green onions, spinach leaves, and red chili flakes. Cook for another 2 minutes until the spinach is wilted.
Step 8
Drizzle the soup with sesame oil and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Step 9
Serve the soup hot, garnishing with additional green onions and red chili flakes if desired.
