Tonight we picked some fresh broccoli, scallions and an orange, added a few other ingredients (like pork, which was kind of essential for this recipe, since it’s actually in the name) and came up with this incredible Broccoli and Pork Stir-Fry. This is one of those great dishes that is not only easy to make, but also very adaptable to what you have on hand. If you don’t have water chestnuts, just leave them out…if you want a little more crunch, add some cashews or peanuts…extra mushrooms in the fridge, toss them in. The two most important things are to make sure the skillet is very hot (you should see the oil shimmering) when you add the pork so you get a good sear and to cook the pork in two batches; if you crowd the pan, it will steam and not brown properly. Other than that, it’s pretty tough to screw this up…and make sure you add the Sriracha at the end to give it that great spicy kick.

I tried this out last night. Added some peanuts and some baby corn. It was amazing! Tasted as good as the best I’ve had in a restaurant, and I knew what was in it and that it was pretty healthy. I think I could sell this out of a food cart in midtown Manhattan and make thousands.
This is getting added to the weekly rotation. I think I’ll substitute it for the Chinese I order once a week.
