Instructions

Step 1: Toss 1 lb thinly sliced pork tenderloin strips with 2 tsp cornstarch until evenly coated.
Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add the pork strips and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned and cooked through; transfer to a plate.
Step 3: In the same pan, add 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger and 2 minced garlic cloves, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 4: Add 2 cups trimmed snow peas and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until bright green and crisp-tender.
Step 5: Return the pork to the pan and add 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp rice vinegar, 1 tsp brown sugar, 1 tsp sesame oil, and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes (if using). Stir well and cook for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats all ingredients.
Step 6: Remove from heat and garnish with 2 thinly sliced scallions before serving over steamed rice or noodles.
