Ingredients

Ginger Pork & Summer Squash Stir-Fry

• 1 lb thinly sliced pork
• 2 small zucchinis, sliced
• 1 cup mushrooms, sliced
• 1 red bell pepper, cored and sliced
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, minced
• 2 cloves of garlic, minced
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 2 green onions, sliced

Instructions

Ginger Pork & Summer Squash Stir-Fry

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, honey, ginger, and garlic. Set aside.
2. Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
3. Add the pork and cook for 3–4 minutes until browned. Remove to a plate.
4. Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the skillet.
5. Add the zucchini, mushrooms, and bell pepper. Stir-fry for 4–5 minutes until just tender but still crisp.
6. Return the pork to the skillet.
7. Pour the sauce over everything and toss until the pork and vegetables are evenly coated. Cook for another 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
8. Sprinkle with sliced green onions and serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.

Notes

• Slice the pork as thinly as possible for quick cooking.
• Don't overcrowd the pan; cook the pork in batches if necessary.
• For a little heat, add a teaspoon of chili garlic sauce or a pinch of red pepper flakes.
• Finish with toasted sesame seeds for extra flavor and crunch.

Cook's Note: One of the best things about a stir-fry is that it works with whatever vegetables are hanging around in your refrigerator. Swap the zucchini, mushrooms, or bell pepper for broccoli, snap peas, carrots, cabbage, green beans, asparagus, or any combination you have on hand. Just keep the total amount of vegetables about the same, and you'll have dinner on the table in no time.
