Stir-Fried Pork and Broccoli Recipe

Stir-Fried Pork and Broccoli Recipe

  • 1 (1 1/2 pound) pork tenderloin, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
  • 2 tablespoons sweet sherry
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 6 cups broccoli florets
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil, divided
  • 3 large cloves garlic, minced
  1. In a medium bowl, toss pork slices with sherry and 2 tablespoons of soy sauce until coated. Set aside. In a separate bowl, stir together the beef broth, sugar, remaining soy sauce, ginger and cornstarch.
  2. Place broccoli in a large skillet over high heat and pour in 1 cup of water. Cover and steam until tender but still crisp and bright green, about 4 minutes. Drain and transfer broccoli to a plate; set aside.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in the same skillet over high heat until it begins to send up wisps of smoke. Add half of the pork slices; stir-fry until browned, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to the plate with the broccoli. Repeat the process with remaining pork and oil.
  4. Return the broccoli and pork to the skillet and add the garlic. Stir-fry for 2 minutes, until garlic is fragrant. Pour in the broth mixture and cook, stirring gently, for 1 minute or until thickened. Serve immediately.
