Mango Pork Stir-Fry

Print Recipe
Servings 4 Serves

Ingredients
  

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/2 cup low sodium chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 small head bok choy
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil divided
  • 1 pound lean pork tenderloin cut into thin strips
  • 1 clove garlic pressed
  • 1 teaspoon minced ginger
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes optional
  • 4 green onions thinly sliced
  • 1 medium mango peeled and cubed
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil

Instructions
 

  • In a small bowl, combine cornstarch, broth and soy sauce until smooth; set aside.
  • Cut off and discard the root end of the bok choy, leaving stalks with leaves. Now cut enough leaves into 1-inch slices to measure 2 cups and cut enough stalks into 1/2-inch pieces to measure 2 cups. Save remaining bok choy for another use.
  • In a large skillet or wok, heat 1/2 tablespoon of oil over medium-high heat; add pork strips and stir-fry for 3 to 4 minutes or until no longer pink; remove from skillet and keep warm. Add remaining oil to the skillet; stir-fry bok choy stalks for 2 minutes.
  • Add garlic, gingerroot and bok choy leaves; stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add water and crushed red pepper flakes (if desired); cook for 2 minutes or until bok choy is tender-crisp. Stir reserved cornstarch mixture and add it to the skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened.
  • Add green onions, mango and reserved pork strips; heat through. Stir in sesame oil just before serving.

Notes

SERVING SUGGESTION: Serve over brown rice instead of Cauli-Rice.
KOSHER: Use boneless skinless chicken breast meat instead of pork.
GLUTEN FREE: Make sure chicken broth and soy sauce are gluten free. Use arrowroot starch instead of cornstarch.
