Pork broccoli stir fry

Ingredients

• 1 lb pork tenderloin or loin, thinly sliced across the grain
• 4 cups broccoli florets
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tsp ginger, minced
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 tsp sesame oil
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1/4 cup water or chicken broth

Steps

1. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced pork with 1 teaspoon of soy sauce and the cornstarch. Toss well to coat (velveting technique) and let marinate for 15 minutes.
2. Prepare the stir-fry sauce by whisking together the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and water in a small bowl.
3. Bring a pot of water to a boil and blanch the broccoli florets for 90 seconds until bright green. Drain and immediately rinse with cold water to stop the cooking.
4. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the pork slices in a single layer and sear until browned and cooked through (about 2-3 minutes). Remove pork from the pan and set aside.
5. Wipe the pan if necessary and add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Stir-fry the minced garlic and ginger for 30 seconds until fragrant.
6. Add the blanched broccoli to the pan and toss for 1 minute to heat through.
7. Add the cooked pork back into the pan. Pour the sauce mixture over the ingredients.
8. Stir-fry everything together for 1-2 minutes until the sauce has thickened and coats the pork and broccoli beautifully. Serve hot with steamed rice.
