Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Pork loin
- 3 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Honey
- 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
- 3 units Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tsp Fresh ginger, grated
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Water
- 2 tbsp Olive oil
- 1 unit Red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 cup Green beans, trimmed
- 2 units Scallions, chopped
- 1 tsp Sesame seeds
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
Instructions
Slice the pork loin into thin medallions, about 1/4-inch thick. Sprinkle the slices with salt and black pepper on both sides.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, honey, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Set aside.
In another small bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Set aside to use later for thickening the sauce.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork slices in a single layer and sear them for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. Do this in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Remove the seared pork from the skillet and set it aside on a plate.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet. Toss in the red bell pepper slices and green beans. Sauté the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.
Return the pork to the skillet with the vegetables. Pour the soy sauce mixture over everything and stir gently to coat.
Bring the sauce to a simmer, then add the cornstarch slurry. Stir continuously until the sauce thickens and coats the pork and vegetables, about 2-3 minutes.
Garnish the dish with chopped scallions and sesame seeds for an extra pop of flavor and texture.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles, and enjoy your Saucy Twist Pork Dish!
