Ingredients
Ground Pork Stir Fry
- 1 lb lean ground pork
- 2 cups sliced mushrooms
- 2 cup chopped green beans
- 2 medium carrots sliced
- 1 red pepper chopped
- 1 medium onion chopped
Sesame Ginger Sauce
- 3 tablespoons cornstarch
- 1 cup chicken broth
- ¼ cup soy sauce gluten-free if needed
- 2 tablespoon EACH: sesame oil and honey
- 2 tablespoons minced ginger
- 1 tablespoon minced garlic
Instructions
- Add the ground pork to a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the meat, stirring it to break up the pieces occasionally, until it is mostly brown, about 5 minutes.
- While the pork cooks, make the sauce. Put the cornstarch and a splash of the chicken stock into a 2-cup measuring cup or small bowl and mix well. Add the remaining chicken stock, soy sauce, sesame oil, honey, ginger, and garlic and mix once more.
- When the pork is mostly cooked, add the mushrooms to the pan and let them cook for 5 minutes. If there is more than 1 tablespoon of the oil in the pan remove it by tilting the pan to the side and using a spoon to scoop it out. If there is less, add a splash of oil.
- Add the green beans, carrots, red pepper, and onion to the pan and let them cook for 5 minutes, until they are crisp-tender.
- Stir the sauce to mix up the starch then pour it into the pan. Once the sauce has thickened (1-2 minutes) serve the stir fry over rice or noodles.
