Ingredients

  • 3/4 cup chicken stock more if needed
  • 1/4 cup hoisin sauce
  • 2 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
  • Optional: 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons avocado oil or any neutral oil
  • 1 pound pork tenderloin cut into thin strips
  • 3 scallions thinly sliced, white and green parts separated
  • 4 cloves garlic chopped
  • 5 cups broccoli florets and stems cut into bite-sized pieces
  • 4 cups cooked white rice for serving
  • Kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste

Instructions

  • In a large measuring cup or medium-sized bowl, whisk together the chicken stock, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, and red pepper flakes and cornstarch.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet or saucepan set over medium-high heat. Add the pork, scallion whites, and garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, until the pork is cooked through, 3-4 minutes. Transfer the pork to a plate and set aside.
  • If needed, wipe out the skillet and add a bit more oil. Add the broccoli and cook for 3-4 minutes until almost tender.
  • Add the sauce and bring to a simmer. Cook until the broccoli is tender but not mushy, then return the meat to the skillet and cook until the sauce has thickened, 1-3 minutes. If it thickens too much before the broccoli is tender, add a splash of chicken stock, until you reach your preferred consistency.
  • Serve the pork, broccoli and sauce over rice. Top with the remaining scallion greens.

Storage Tips
Refrigerator This stir fry keeps well in the refrigerator for about 3 days. Stir frys in general are some of my favorite leftovers!
Freezer This recipe freezes well for 2-3 months in an airtight container. To ensure the broccoli doesn't get mushy when thawing, be sure not to overcook it (or just sauté some fresh broccoli as you heat it up).
