Ingredients

• 500 grams Pork tenderloin
• 200 grams Broccoli florets
• 1 medium Bell pepper (red or yellow, sliced)
• 1 medium Zucchini (sliced)
• 100 grams Snow peas
• 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 tablespoon Ginger (grated)
• 2 tablespoons Coconut oil or avocado oil
• 3 tablespoons Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional, for heat)
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
• 2 stalks Green onions (sliced, for garnish)
• 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick, and season lightly with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Prepare all the vegetables by cutting the broccoli into small florets, slicing the bell pepper into thin strips, slicing the zucchini, and trimming the ends off the snow peas.

Step 3

In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes (if using) for the stir fry sauce. Set aside.

Step 4

Heat 1 tablespoon of coconut or avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Add the pork strips to the hot skillet and stir fry for 4-5 minutes, until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove from skillet and set aside on a plate.

Step 6

Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet, then sauté the minced garlic and grated ginger for about 30 seconds, until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the broccoli florets, bell pepper slices, zucchini, and snow peas to the skillet. Stir fry for 5-6 minutes, letting the vegetables become tender yet still crisp. Don't overcook them.

Step 8

Return the cooked pork to the skillet and pour the stir fry sauce over everything. Toss to coat evenly and cook for 2 more minutes, ensuring the sauce heats through.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning as needed. You can add an extra dash of soy sauce or a sprinkle of salt, if desired.

Step 10

Remove from heat and serve the stir fry immediately. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
