Ingredients

2 cups uncooked instant brown rice
2 1/4 cups water
1 teaspoon olive or canola oil
2 medium green onions, cut into 1-inch pieces (1/4 cup)
1 lb boneless center-cut pork loin, cut in half lengthwise, then thinly sliced crosswise
1 lb fresh asparagus spears, cut into 2 1/2-inch pieces
1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons dry white wine or orange juice
2 teaspoons cornstarch
3/4 teaspoon grated gingerroot or 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger

Steps:

Cook rice in water as directed on package, omitting butter and salt.
Meanwhile, in 12-inch nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add onions and pork; cook 4 to 6 minutes, turning pork occasionally, until pork is browned. Add asparagus and bell pepper; cook 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until asparagus is crisp-tender.
In small bowl, mix remaining ingredients, stirring until cornstarch is dissolved.
Reduce heat to low. Stir soy sauce mixture into pork mixture; cook until slightly thickened. Serve over rice.
