Thinly slice the pork loin into bite-sized strips. Set aside.
Cut the broccoli into small florets. Mince the garlic and ginger. Slice the red bell pepper if using.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, water, and brown sugar until smooth. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the pork to the hot skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until lightly browned and just cooked through. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet, then toss in the minced garlic, ginger, and optional red bell peppers. Stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until they are bright green and tender-crisp.
Return the cooked pork to the skillet and pour the sauce over the mixture. Stir well to coat everything in the sauce.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds and sliced scallions.
Serve immediately over cooked rice, if desired.
