Instructions

Step 1: In a large bowl, combine 3 tbsp gochujang, 2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp sesame oil, 1 tbsp brown sugar, 3 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tsp grated ginger. Add 1 lb thinly sliced pork shoulder and toss to coat evenly. Marinate for at least 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 medium sliced onion and 1 julienned carrot, stir-frying for 3-4 minutes until slightly softened but still crisp.
Step 3: Add the marinated pork along with all marinade to the skillet. Stir-fry for 6-8 minutes until pork is cooked through and edges start to caramelize.
Step 4: Toss in 3 sliced green onions and cook for an additional 1 minute. Remove from heat and sprinkle 1 tsp toasted sesame seeds over the top before serving.
