Ingredients

• 1 lb, thinly sliced into 1/4-inch strips pork tenderloin
• 1 large, sliced into thin strips red bell pepper
• 1 large, sliced into thin strips yellow bell pepper
• 3 stalks, sliced diagonally green onion
• 3 cloves, minced garlic cloves
• 1 tbsp, minced fresh ginger
• 3 tbsp soy sauce
• 2 tbsp hoisin sauce
• 1 tbsp sesame oil
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1/2 tsp ground black pepper
• 1/4 tsp red chili flakes
• 1.5 cups uncooked jasmine rice
• 3 cups water

Instructions

1. Step 1: Rinse 1.5 cups uncooked jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then combine with 3 cups water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until water is absorbed and rice is tender. Remove from heat and let sit covered for 5 minutes.
2. Step 2: While the rice cooks, heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add 3 minced garlic cloves and 1 tbsp minced fresh ginger, sautéing for 30 seconds until fragrant.
3. Step 3: Add 1 lb thinly sliced pork tenderloin strips to the wok. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the pork is browned and cooked through, stirring frequently.
4. Step 4: Add 1 large sliced red bell pepper, 1 large sliced yellow bell pepper, and 3 sliced green onions to the pork. Stir-fry for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
5. Step 5: Stir in 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp hoisin sauce, 1 tbsp sesame oil, 1/2 tsp ground black pepper, and 1/4 tsp red chili flakes. Continue to cook and toss for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the pork and vegetables evenly.
6. Step 6: Fluff the jasmine rice with a fork and serve the spiced pork stir-fry spooned over the rice immediately.
