This recipe uses thinly sliced pork for a quick Japanese-style sauté. It is excellent with rice and steamed veggies on the side. You can also double the recipe and use whole pork chops or chicken breasts for grilling.

Heat oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Sauté pork in hot oil until browned and cooked through; discard marinade. An instant-read thermometer inserted into pork should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Recipe Tip

Do not sauté pork on low or medium heat; the juices will not cook fast enough to get a crispy texture.
