Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 lb ground pork and cook, breaking up with a wooden spoon, for 5-6 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  2. Step 2: Add 4 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger to the pork, stirring for 1 minute until fragrant.
  3. Step 3: Toss in 1 sliced red bell pepper, 2 cups broccoli florets, and 1 julienned large carrot. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until vegetables are crisp-tender.
  4. Step 4: In a small bowl, whisk together 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp hoisin sauce, 1 tbsp sriracha, and 1 tsp brown sugar. Pour the sauce over the pork and vegetables, stirring well to coat evenly. Cook for another 2 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
  5. Step 5: Remove from heat and sprinkle 2 sliced green onions and 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds over the stir fry. Serve hot over 4 cups cooked jasmine rice.
