Ingredients

• 1 lb pork tenderloin
• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tsp cornstarch
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 inch piece ginger
• 1 medium red bell pepper
• 2 cups broccoli florets
• 1 large carrot
• 2 tbsp sriracha sauce
• 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 2 stalks green onions
• 1 tbsp sesame seeds
• 4 cups cooked rice

Directions

Step 1

Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix 2 tablespoons of soy sauce with 2 teaspoons of cornstarch to create a marinade. Toss the pork slices in the mixture and set aside to marinate while you prepare the other ingredients.

Step 3

Mince the garlic and ginger. Cut the red bell pepper into thin strips, slice the carrot into matchsticks, and chop the green onions.

Step 4

In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, sriracha sauce, hoisin sauce, brown sugar, and chicken broth to create the stir fry sauce. Set aside.

Step 5

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

Step 6

Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in the same skillet. Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant.

Step 7

Add the red bell pepper, broccoli florets, and carrot to the skillet. Stir fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender but still crisp.

Step 8

Return the cooked pork to the skillet. Pour in the prepared stir fry sauce and toss everything together to coat. Cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

Step 9

Garnish the stir fry with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.

Step 10

Serve the spicy pork stir fry immediately over a bed of cooked rice. Enjoy!
