Slice the pork tenderloin into thin, bite-sized strips and season with salt and black pepper.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey, cornstarch, and 1/2 cup of water until smooth. Set aside.
Blanch the broccoli florets in boiling water for 2-3 minutes or until bright green and slightly tender. Drain and set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the pork strips and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, or until lightly browned and cooked through. Remove the pork and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and sesame oil. Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the blanched broccoli to the skillet and toss to coat in the garlic and ginger mixture. Cook for 1-2 minutes.
Return the pork to the skillet and pour in the sauce mixture. Stir everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and evenly coat the pork and broccoli.
If desired, sprinkle red chili flakes for a bit of heat before serving.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles for a complete meal.
