How to Make Pork In Hot Peanut Sauce

  1. In a bowl, whisk together the soy sauce (1/4 cup), rice vinegar (2 tablespoons), brown sugar (2 tablespoons), honey (1 tablespoon), sesame oil (1 tablespoon), sriracha (1-2 tablespoons, adjust to taste), minced garlic (2 cloves), and grated ginger (1 tablespoon).
  2. In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the sliced pork (1 lb) and cook until browned on all sides and cooked through, about 8-10 minutes. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.
  3. Add the chopped bell pepper (1 cup) and sliced onion (1/2 cup) to the skillet and cook until softened, about 5 minutes.
  4. Pour the peanut butter (1/2 cup) into the skillet and whisk constantly until smooth and melted. Add the prepared sauce and bring to a simmer.
  5. Return the cooked pork to the skillet, coating it in the sauce. Simmer for another 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  6. Serve hot over rice (2 cups cooked) or noodles. Garnish with chopped green onions (2 tablespoons), if desired.
