Another versatile dish, use your favorite vegetables and put your own spin on it. This is super quick and easy week night healthy meal. Your kids would love it too!

Ingredient:

Half a pound of lean pork, thinly sliced against the grain

1 TBSP corn starch

2 TBSP soy sauce

1 tsp Sichuan pepper corn powder, leave it out if you don’t have it

4 jalapenos

1 onion

1 green onion, sliced into 1/2 inch sections

1/8 cup of soy sauce

2 TBSP hoisin sauce

4 cloves of galic, minced

5 slices of fresh ginger, cut into strips and minced

Method:

Marinade pork slices in a small bowl with corn starch, 2 TBSP soy sauce and sichuan pepper corn powder. Mix well and set aside.

Cut jalapeno in half lengthwise, scoop out seeds and white part using a spoon and cut into bite size pieces. Cut onion into bite size pieces, separate the onion peddles, that would make stir fry a lot easier later.

Heat up about 2 TBSP vegetable oil in a nonstick pan on medium high heat. Dump pork slices into the pan and cook the meat to medium rare. Take the meat out from the pan and back into the marinating bowl for later.

Add more oil into the pan, in goes the minced garlic and ginger and stir fry until it’s fragrant. There is no need to wash the pan or wiping it down.

Add the onions and peppers and stir fry for a few minutes to take the raw edges off the vegetables. Add the pork slices back into the pan.

Add soy sauce and hoisin sauce to the pan and mix well. The sauces will help pick up any brown bits at the bottom of the pan. Because the pork had corn starch in the marinade, the sauce will thicken up nicely too and become kinda glossy.

Kill the heat, add the green onion pieces and stir through. Dish up and enjoy!
