How to Make Asian Style Pork And Broccoli In Garlic Sauce

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons cornstarch and 2 tablespoons soy sauce until smooth. Add 1 lb of trimmed pork (or chicken) strips, toss to coat, and marinate for at least 30 minutes (longer is better!).
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 teaspoons cornstarch, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons water, and 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce. Set aside.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil and 1 tablespoon peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat for about 2 minutes.
  4. Add the marinated pork (or chicken) and stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until lightly browned.
  5. Add 8 oz sliced mushrooms, 10 oz broccoli florets, 2 green onions (sliced), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 teaspoon grated ginger, and 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional).
  6. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  7. Stir in the hoisin sauce mixture, cooking for 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce has thickened.
  8. Add 2 tablespoons orange juice and stir until heated through.
  9. Serve immediately over cooked rice. Garnish with extra green onions, if desired.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Elevate your dish with simple flavor boosters! A final flourish of freshly chopped herbs can add incredible brightness, while a squeeze of lemon or lime juice right before serving can awaken all the flavors. Don't underestimate a sprinkle of quality finishing salt or a drizzle of good olive oil to make your creation shine.
