Asian-Style Pork and Broccoli in Garlic Sauce image

This can also be made in a large skillet, and is equally delicious using chicken *or* pork, I have made it with both and I have to say that I prefer the chicken better. You can double this recipe, but you will probably have to brown the meat in two batches depending on the size of your wok or skillet, and I strongly suggest to double this, it is very good! You can adjust all ingredients amounts to taste.
