How to Make Asian Stir Fry Pork And Noodles
- Cook 8 oz of pasta (vermicelli or rice noodles) in boiling water until al dente. Drain and set aside.
- Slice 1 lb pork tenderloin into thin strips. (Tip: Partially freeze for easier slicing!) Place in a bowl.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup hoisin sauce, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1/2 teaspoon chili flakes (or more, to taste), 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon grated fresh ginger.
- Pour half of the hoisin sauce mixture over the pork strips. Toss to coat and marinate for 15 minutes.
- Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a wok or large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the marinated pork and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until lightly browned.
- Remove the pork from the wok and set aside.
- Add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the wok. Add 5 oz baby spinach, 1/2 cup water chestnuts (sliced), 1/2 cup shredded carrots, and 2 green onions (sliced).
- Stir-fry until spinach is wilted and vegetables are tender-crisp (about 3-4 minutes).
- Add the cooked noodles and the reserved pork to the wok.
- Pour in the remaining hoisin sauce mixture. Stir to combine and cook for 2 minutes, until heated through.
- Serve immediately. Garnish with extra green onions, sesame seeds, or chili flakes if desired.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
