Pork and Veggie Saute Recipe

  • 1 cup reduced sodium chicken broth
  • 1/4 cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground allspice
  • 1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
  • 1/2 pound pork tenderloin, cut into 1/4-inch-thick slices
  • 2 bay leaves
  • 2 teaspoons canola oil
  • 1/2 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
  • 1/2 cup julienned sweet red pepper
  • 1/3 cup thinly sliced celery
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoons honey
  • Hot cooked rice
  1. In a bowl, combine the first five ingredients. Pour 1/2 cup marinade into a large resealable plastic bag; add pork and one bay leaf. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for at least 4 hours. Add remaining bay leaf to the remaining marinade; cover and refrigerate.
  2. Drain and discard marinade from pork; discard bay leaf. In a nonstick skillet, saute pork in oil for 4-5 minutes or until no longer pink. Remove and keep warm.
  3. In the same skillet, saute the mushrooms, red pepper and celery until crisp-tender. Discard bay leaf from reserved marinade. Combine cornstarch, honey and marinade until smooth. Stir into skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Return pork to the pan; heat through. Serve over rice if desired.
