Number Of Ingredients 17

2 pounds pork loin chops, (cut into thin slices)
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon butter
4 large eggs, (beaten)
4 cups chopped kale
4 cups shredded cabbage
2 tablespoons grated ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce
3 tablespoons hoisin sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 cup green onions, (sliced into 1/2-1" lengths)
sesame seeds, (for garnish)

Steps:

  • In a large skillet, over medium-high heat the butter until melted. Pour in the whisked eggs and cook until firm. Flip and cook for 1-2 minutes more. Transfer cooked egg to a large cutting board to cool.
  • Add the olive oil to the skillet, along with the prepared pork, salt, and ground black pepper. Fry until the meat is browned, but not overcooked.
  • Transfer cooked pork to a bowl and set aside.
  • Add the kale, cabbage, ginger, and garlic to the skillet. Toss well to combine and sauté until the kale and cabbage begin to wilt slightly.
  • In the meantime, add the cornstarch to a bowl and whisk until dissolved with one tablespoon of water. Add in the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, and honey. Whisk into the cornstarch and water mixture. Set aside.
  • Slice the fried egg into strips measuring roughly 2 inches long and 1/4 inch wide.
  • Once the cabbage and kale are wilted, add the cooked pork and sliced egg back into the skillet. Toss well to combine.
  • Whisk the sauce mixture again to ensure the cornstarch has not settled on the bottom. Pour over the pork, egg, and veggie mixture. Toss well and cook until the sauce has thickened.
  • Turn off the heat. Stir through the green onions.
  • Plate, garnish with more green onions (optional) and sesame seeds (optional). Serve immediately.
