- 1 lb pork tenderloin or shoulder, thinly sliced
- 2 cups green beans, trimmed
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 yellow bell pepper, sliced
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1 tbsp oyster sauce
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 2 tbsp water
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Optional: sesame seeds and sliced green onions for garnish
- In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water to make the sauce. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add sliced pork and stir-fry until browned and cooked through, about 4–5 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Add remaining oil to the skillet. Sauté garlic and ginger for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add green beans and stir-fry for 2–3 minutes.
- Add bell peppers and cook for another 2–3 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Return the pork to the skillet. Pour in the sauce and toss everything to coat evenly. Cook for 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles, garnished with sesame seeds and green onions if desired.
Notes
- Slice pork thinly against the grain for tender results.
- Blanch green beans briefly before stir-frying for extra tenderness.
- You can substitute pork with chicken, beef, or tofu.
- Add chili flakes or sriracha for a spicy version.
