Ingredients

1250 g pork loin

2 tbsp vegetable oil

1 tbsp sesame oil, divided

2 tbsp soy sauce

1 tbsp cornstarch

1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced

3 cloves garlic, minced

2 tbsp hoisin sauce

1 tbsp rice vinegar

1 tbsp honey

1 tsp chili garlic sauce

3 scallions, sliced

1 tbsp sesame seeds

Instructions

Slice pork loin into 1 cm strips against the grain and pat dry.

Toss strips with soy sauce, cornstarch, and 1 tsp sesame oil and let sit 5 minutes.

Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat until smoking.

Stir-fry pork in a single layer 2–3 minutes without moving, then stir and cook until just cooked through about 1–2 more minutes; transfer to a plate.

Add remaining oil to pan, sauté ginger and garlic 30 seconds until fragrant.

Return pork to pan, add hoisin, rice vinegar, honey, and chili garlic sauce, toss to coat and heat through 1 minute.

Remove from heat, stir in sliced scallions and sesame seeds, and serve immediately with steamed rice or greens.

FAQs

Can I use chicken instead of pork? Yes, swap in chicken breasts or thighs; cooking times will be similar.

Can I make this dairy-free? All ingredients are dairy-free; just check hoisin if you need a dairy-free brand.
