Ingredients

  • 1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger root
  • 4 cloves garlic
  • 3 large green onions
  • ¼ bunch fresh cilantro
  • 1 lb thin-cut pork chops
  • 1 (7.1-oz) package cooked stir-fry noodles
  • 2 teaspoons sesame oil
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • ⅓ cup sweet chili sauce
  • 1 (16-oz) bag shredded coleslaw mix
  • ½ cup chow mein noodles
  • 1 lime, for wedges (optional)

Prep

    Steps

      1. Peel ginger, then chop (2 teaspoons) finely. Chop garlic, green onions (¾ cup), and cilantro (¼ cup) finely. Cut pork into thin strips (wash hands).
      2. Microwave stir-fry noodles following package instructions, then cut noodles in half. Preheat large, nonstick sauté pan on medium-high 2–3 minutes. Pour oil in pan, then add garlic, ginger, and ½ cup green onions; cook and stir 1 minute. Add pork and cook 2–3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until browned.
      3. Reduce heat to medium-low. Stir in soy sauce, vinegar, and sweet chili sauce, then add slaw and toss to coat; cook and stir 1–2 minutes until slaw wilts and pork is 145°F.
      4. Remove pan from heat; stir in stir-fry noodles and cilantro. Top with chow mein noodles and remaining ¼ cup green onions. Cut lime into wedges and serve on the side, if using.
