Sizzling with fresh ingredients, this lively Asian stir-fry keeps prep time to a bare minimum without sacrificing flavor.
Ingredients
1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed and very thinly sliced crosswise
2 teaspoons cornstarch
4 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
1/2 pound snow peas, strings removed
3 garlic cloves, forced through a garlic press
1/2 pound sliced cremini mushrooms
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce
Accompaniment: steamed rice
Directions
Toss pork with cornstarch and 1 teaspoon salt.
Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a wok or 12-inch heavy skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Stir-fry pork until pale golden and almost cooked through, about 4 minutes, then transfer to a plate. Add 1 tablespoon oil to wok and stir-fry snow peas with garlic until crisp-tender, about 1 minute. Transfer to plate.
Add mushrooms to wok with water and remaining tablespoon oil and cook, covered, until softened, about 5 minutes. Add pork, snow peas, and teriyaki sauce and stir-fry until pork is cooked through, about 2 minutes.
