Follow The Directions

01

Step
1 mins

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. (Approximately 1 minute)

02

Step
7 mins

Add the crushed garlic and minced ginger, stir-frying until fragrant. (Approximately 30 seconds)

03

Step
2 mins

Introduce the sliced pork tenderloin to the wok. Stir-fry until the pork is cooked through and lightly browned. (Approximately 5-7 minutes)

04

Step
7 mins

Remove the pork from the wok and set aside.

05

Step
1 mins

Pour the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil into the same wok over medium-high heat.

06

Step

Add the sliced hot green chile peppers and stir-fry until they are well-coated in oil and release their pungent aroma. (Approximately 2 minutes)

07

Step

Return the cooked pork to the wok with the chilies. Season generously with salt.

08

Step

Continue to cook and stir-fry until the peppers soften slightly and meld with the pork. (Approximately 5-7 minutes)

09

Step

Drizzle soy sauce over the pork and chili mixture, adjusting the amount to achieve your desired color and level of saltiness. Stir-fry to combine.

Adjust the number of chilies to your spice preference. For a milder dish, remove the seeds from the chilies before slicing.
Ensure your wok or skillet is very hot before adding the pork for optimal searing.
Serve immediately with steamed rice to balance the heat.
