Spicy Pork and Bok Choy Stir Fry
Servings: 6 servings

Ingredients

  • 1 package rice noodles I used the thick rice noodles
  • 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil or extra-virgin olive oil, divided
  • 1 head bok choy chopped, with green and white parts separated
  • 3 bunch scallions thinly sliced, with green and white parts separated
  • 2 tablespoons fresh ginger minced
  • 2-3 tablespoons chili garlic paste or to taste, I like sambal oleek
  • 1 pound ground pork
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce or tamari
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • Squeeze of fresh lime juice optional

Instructions

  • Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Set aside. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large flat-bottomed wok or cast-iron skillet over high heat. Add bok choy whites and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add bok choy greens and cook until wilted, about 1 minute more. Transfer all the bok choy to a medium bowl.
  • Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, scallion whites, ginger and chili paste to the pan. Add the ground pork and cook, crumbling with a wooden spoon, until it's no longer pink, about 5-8 minutes. Add the chicken broth, soy sauce (or tamari) and sugar. Mix the 1 tablespoon of cornstarch with the 1 tablespoon of water in a small bowl and add to the pan. Bring to a boil and cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, about 1 minute. Stir in the rice noodles and bok choy and cook, stirring, until heated through, about 1 minute. Serve topped with scallion greens and a squeeze of lime juice.
