A sweet and mildly spicy stir fry dish that is easy on the waistline! Can also be made with chicken! Goes great with jasmine rice. I mix and match veggies to whatever I have or whatever I feel like.

Ingredients

1 pound boneless pork chops, cut into stir-fry strips
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
¼ cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon rice vinegar
1 tablespoon white sugar
1 teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
1 carrot, peeled and sliced
1 green bell pepper, sliced
1 (4 ounce) can sliced water chestnuts, drained

Steps:

Mix the sliced pork, 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch together in a bowl. Set aside. Combine the remaining 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce, chicken broth, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch with rice vinegar, sugar, and cayenne pepper in small bowl. Set aside.
Heat the sesame oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the pork; cook and stir until the pork begins to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger; cook and stir until fragrant.

Stir in the reserved hoisin sauce mixture and continue cooking and stirring until the flavors are combined, about 3 minutes.
