Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds ground pork lean
  • 1 small onion sliced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger peeled and minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil divided
  • 2 cups zucchini sliced, about one small zucchini
  • 2 cups red bell pepper sliced
  • 2 cups mushrooms cleaned and quartered
  • 2 cups baby bok choy sliced, about two small heads
  • 1 cup bean sprouts rinsed
  • 2 tablespoons coconut aminos or soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar unsweetened
  • salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Heat one tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet. Add the ground pork, and cook over medium-high heat for 5 minutes or so until fully cooked. Break up the lumps as you go.
  • Drain excess liquid from pork, and add the onion, garlic, and ginger. Cook over medium heat until the onion is translucent, 3-5 minutes. Add the red pepper flakes and Sriracha sauce. Add less if you want it less spicy.
  • Remove the pork mixture from the pan and set aside. Heat the remaining tablespoon of oil in the pan. Add the mushrooms and sliced baby bok choy. Cook for 3-4 minutes until the mushrooms and white parts of the bok choy are softened. Add the remaining veggies and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp.
  • Add the coconut aminos, rice wine vinegar and pork mixture to the pan. Stir to combine and season with salt and pepper to taste. 

Notes

Recipe Card Tips

  • Cook the mushrooms and bok choy before the rest of the vegetables. They need more time, and adding everything at once leaves some pieces raw and others mushy.
  • Go light on the Sriracha and red pepper flakes at first. Both intensify as the dish sits, so it's easier to add more than to fix an overly spicy batch.
