Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb pork loin (thinly sliced)
- 3 tbsp coconut aminos
- 1 tbsp sesame oil
- 3 cloves garlic (minced)
- 1 tbsp ginger (grated)
- 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes
- 1 tbsp arrowroot powder
- 2 tbsp water
- 2 cups broccoli florets
- 1 cup carrot (julienned)
- 1 medium red bell pepper (sliced)
- 2 stalks green onions (sliced)
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 1 medium lime (juiced)
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix coconut aminos, sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and crushed red pepper flakes. Set aside this marinade.
In another small bowl, whisk together arrowroot powder and water to make a slurry. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of avocado oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the sliced pork loin and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until cooked through and lightly browned. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of avocado oil. Add broccoli florets, julienned carrot, and sliced red bell pepper. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they are tender-crisp.
Return the cooked pork to the skillet with the stir-fried vegetables. Pour the marinade over the mixture and stir to coat evenly.
Stir the arrowroot slurry into the skillet to thicken the sauce, cooking for 1-2 minutes until the sauce becomes glossy.
Turn off the heat and squeeze the juice of a lime over the stir-fry. Sprinkle sliced green onions on top as a garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Paleo Spicy Stir-Fried Pork!
