Ingredients

• 12 oz lo mein noodles
• 1 lb pork tenderloin
• 4 tbsp soy sauce
• 3 tbsp hoisin sauce
• 2 tbsp sriracha
• 2 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 3 garlic cloves
• 1 tbsp ginger
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 carrot
• 3 stalks green onions
• 1 cup broccoli florets
• 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes

Directions

Step 1

Cook the lo mein noodles according to the package instructions. Drain, toss with 1 teaspoon of sesame oil to prevent sticking, and set aside.

Step 2

Thinly slice the pork tenderloin against the grain into bite-sized strips. In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and toss the pork slices in the mixture to coat. Let marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 3

In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sriracha, oyster sauce, and 1 tablespoon sesame oil. Set aside.

Step 4

Chop the red bell pepper and carrot into thin strips. Mince the garlic cloves and grate the ginger. Thinly slice the green onions, separating the white parts from the green tops.

Step 5

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the marinated pork and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Stir-fry the garlic, ginger, and white parts of the green onions for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the broccoli florets, red bell pepper, and carrot to the skillet. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still slightly crisp.

Step 8

Return the cooked pork to the skillet, followed by the cooked noodles. Pour the sauce over the mixture and toss everything well to coat evenly.

Step 9

Sprinkle the crushed red pepper flakes over the dish (adjust to taste) and stir to combine.

Step 10

Garnish with the sliced green onion tops and serve immediately.
