MAKE THE STIR FRY
- In a wok or large skillet, stir-fry pork in 1 Tbsp oil over MED HIGH heat for 2-3 minutes, until browned. Remove to a plate.
- In the same pan, add remaining 1 Tbsp oil, garlic and ginger, cooking for 30 seconds, then add stir-fry vegetables and cook until crisp tender.
- Stir broth mixture and add to the vegetables. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1 minute or until thickened.
- Add stir fry noodles and pork; heat through. Drizzle with sesame oil, then top with garnishes and serve.
Notes
- Pork tenderloin can be substituted for the pork chops if desired.
- I like to add a sprinkle of black pepper before serving, but it's completely optional.
