Instructions

Step 1: In a small bowl, whisk 3 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp brown sugar, 1 tsp cornstarch, and 3 tbsp water until smooth and set aside.
Step 2: Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add 12 oz thinly sliced pork tenderloin and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned and cooked through. Remove pork and set aside.
Step 3: Reduce heat to medium-high, add 2 tsp sesame oil, 4 minced garlic cloves, and 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger to the wok. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Step 4: Add 3 halved baby bok choy heads and 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes, stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until bok choy leaves are wilted but stems remain crisp.
Step 5: Return pork to the wok and pour in the prepared soy sauce mixture. Stir everything together and cook for 1-2 minutes until sauce thickens and coats the pork and bok choy.
Step 6: Remove from heat, garnish with 2 sliced green onions, and serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
