Instructions

  • In a large skillet, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat. Once oil is shimmering, add the pork strips, season with salt and pepper and cook until no longer pink on the inside and lightly browned, about 10 minutes. When done, set aside and place the skillet back over medium-high heat.
  • While pork cooks, prepare the sauce: add all of the ingredients into a bowl and whisk together. Set aside.
  • To the skillet from the pork, add the garlic, ginger, and white scallion parts and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the mushrooms and broth and cook until soft, 3-5 minutes. Add the bell pepper and carrot cook until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Add the zucchini noodles and toss. Add the sauce and cooked pork and cook for 3 minutes or until the zucchini softens to your preference.
