Ingredients
- 1 lb pork tenderloin, sliced
- 2 cups cabbage, shredded
- 1 cup carrots, julienned
- 1/2 cup soy sauce
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 2 green onions, chopped
- 2 cups chow mein noodles
Instructions
- Prepare all ingredients by slicing pork tenderloin into thin strips, shredding cabbage, and julienning carrots. Chop green onions and set aside.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large wok or wide skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers and is visibly hot.
- Add sliced pork tenderloin to the hot oil and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the meat is browned and almost cooked through. Remove pork from the pan and set aside.
- In the same pan, add julienned carrots and stir-fry for 2 minutes until they start to soften but remain crisp.
- Add shredded cabbage to the pan and continue stir-frying for another 2-3 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Return cooked pork to the pan and add chow mein noodles, stirring to combine all ingredients.
- Pour soy sauce over the mixture and toss everything together, ensuring noodles and meat are evenly coated.
- Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing flavors to meld and noodles to heat through completely.
- Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot directly from the wok.
Tips
- * Make sure to slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips to ensure even cooking and a tender texture. * Don't overcrowd the pan - cook the ingredients in batches if necessary, to prevent steaming instead of stir-frying. * Use a high-quality soy sauce to get the best flavor out of your dish. * To add some extra crunch, sprinkle some chopped nuts or sesame seeds on top of your Pork Chow Mein before serving. * Experiment with different vegetables, such as bell peppers or mushrooms, to add some variety to your dish.
