Ingredients

  • 1 lb pork tenderloin
  • 2 tbsp fresh ginger
  • 3 cloves garlic
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 8 oz cooked noodles
  • ¼ cup peanuts

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice the 1 lb pork tenderloin into thin strips. Peel and mince the 3 garlic cloves and 2 tbsp ginger.

  2. 2

    In a small bowl, mix 3 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, and 1 tbsp brown sugar until the sugar dissolves.

  3. 3

    Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tbsp oil and sear the pork in a single layer until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

  4. 4

    In the same pan, add the garlic and ginger. Stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Return the pork to the pan.

  5. 5

    Pour the sauce over the pork and stir to coat. Cook until the sauce thickens and clings to the meat, about 2 minutes.

  6. 6

    Divide the 8 oz cooked noodles among bowls. Top with the pork and sauce. Garnish with 0.25 cup crushed peanuts and chopped green onions or herbs if you have them.

  7. 7

    Serve with a lemon wedge to squeeze over the top.
