New Dinner Recipe-Teriyaki Pork Stir Fry

Last week I came across this recipe on food.com. I had boneless pork chops that needed to be cooked and this recipe had a short list of ingredients that I had on hand. Love when life works out like that. For even faster food prep try using already minced garlic and ginger. I found the jarred ginger at HEB. Don't you love the smell of ginger? I do! My husband and daughter said they would like to eat this for dinner again.

~Teriyaki Pork Stir Fry~

2/3 cup soy sauce. I will use low sodium next time.
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 T. cornstarch
2 tsp. minced ginger
2 tsp. minced garlic
1/4 tsp. red pepper flakes-optional. my 4 year old thought it was a little spicy.
1 pound of boneless pork cut into thin strips
1.5 cups fresh broccoli florets
1/4 cup minced onion
1 T. olive oil

optional- make a pot of rice

1. In a large bowl whisk together soy sauce, brown sugar & 1 T. cornstarch.
2. Add ginger, garlic & red pepper to the sauce.
3. Put pork in the sauce & marinate for 15 minutes.
4. Turn skillet on medium high heat. Add olive oil and then saute onions and broccoli. I added a splash of water to help soften the broccoli. Cook until onions are soft. Remove broccoli & onions and set aside.
5. Now cook the pork. Once the pork is browned. Add the rest of sauce and bring to a boil. Let cook until the sauce has thickened. At least one minute. Then combine the broccoli with pork.
Enjoy over rice.
