Ingredients
  

Sauce

  • 1 can chicken broth
  • 2 Tbs corn starch
  • 1 Tbs soy sauce
  • 4 green onions, sliced thinly
  • 2 Tbs oil
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • 1 pork tenderloin, cut into cubes (about 1 lb)
  • 1-2 heads broccoli, cleaned and cut into bite-size pieces
  • 1/3 cup chopped pimento peppers
  • 1 Tbs toasted sesame seeds

Instructions
 

  • Whisk broth, corn starch, and soy sauce together. Stir in green onions.
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add oil and continue heating until oil just starts to shimmer but does not burn. Add garlic and saute for 30 seconds. Then add pork. Cook pork, stirring occasionally, for 5-10 minutes until no longer pink.
  • After pork is cooked, place into a colander over a bowl or a paper towel-lined bowl, and allow excess juices and grease to drain. Add broth mixture to pan and whisk over medium heat. Add broccoli and stir so that sauce evenly coats it. Bring sauce up to a boil and continue stirring. Add pimento peppers and add pork back to pan. Cook until broccoli is tender and pork is warmed through. Serve on a big platter. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds. Enjoy!
