Easy Stir Fry

Easy Stir-Fry

4 cups hot cooked rice
2 Tb soy sauce
2 Tb ketchup
1/2 tsp ground ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
3/4 lb pork sirloin chops, thinly sliced (or boneless, skinless chicken)
3 Tb canola oil, divided
1 medium onion, sliced into 1/2 inch wedges
4 small sweet red peppers, thinly sliced (or 1 red bell pepper)
1-2 cups loosely packed red cabbage, thinly sliced

While your rice is cooking, mix together the marinade. Mix soy sauce, ketchup, ginger and garlic. Add pork and let stand for 15 minutes.
Heat 1 Tb of oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions, peppers, and cabbage (or any vegetable - total should be around 3-4 cups) and stir-fry until crisp-tender. Remove mixture from skillet.
Heat 2 Tb oil in same skillet. Add pork, including all the marinade, and stir-fry until cooked. Stir in vegetable mixture. Serve over hot cooked rice.
*the Sriracha sauce is an optional ingredient - one I rarely use but once in awhile I will add a dab of it - just a little because it is really hot! You can add it to the marinade or at the end if you want to add it to taste.
