Ingredients and Method
Ingredients
- For the sauce:
- 3 tbsp tamari or soy sauce
- 1 tbsp grated or mince fresh ginger
- 1 tsp Sambal Oelek or Asian chili-garlic sauce
- 2 tsp toasted sesame oil
- For the stir-fry and serving:
- 1 pound ButcherBox.ca lean ground pork
- 1 pound zucchini (about 3 medium)
- 2 tbsp canola or vegetable oil, divided
- to taste Salt
- to taste Freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced scallions
- Cooked white or brown rice, or use riced cauliflower for keto friendly/gluten friendly options for serving
Method
- Make the sauce - combine all ingredients together, mix to blend well, set aside to allow flavours to marry.
- Cut each zucchini in half lengthwise, then slice each half into 1/2 inch half moon slices
- Heat a flat-bottomed wok or large frying pan over medium-high heat until a drop of water vaporizes immediately on contact.
- Drizzle 1 tablespoon of the oil around the pan, add the pork, and season with salt and pepper. Let cook undisturbed for 30 seconds, then break the pork into small, bite-sized pieces and continue stir-frying until it's cooked through and golden-brown, about 5 minutes. Transfer the pork to a paper towel-lined plated and drain the pan of excess fat.
- Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil in the pan, add the zucchini, and spread out into one even layer. Let cook undisturbed for 30 seconds. Stir-fry the zucchini until browned and just tender, about 5 minutes more.
- Return the pork to the skillet, add the sauce, and stir-fry until the sauce is well-incorporated and the zucchini begins to look glossy, about 30 seconds more. Garnish with the scallions and serve over rice or cauli-rice.
