Sautéed Pork & Noodles

Ingredients

  • 8 ounces whole-wheat linguine
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil, divided
  • 1 large onion, thinly sliced
  • 1 pound green cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 large carrots, peeled and shredded
  • 2 ounces broccoli sprouts
  • 1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat and cut into 1-inch cubes
  • 1 medium lime, juiced
  • 2 teaspoons ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions

Cook linguine according to package directions. Drain, return to saucepan, and set aside.

Meanwhile, in a large nonstick skillet, heat 1 teaspoon oil on medium. Add onion and sauté, stirring occasionally, for 3 minutes. Add cabbage and garlic, and sauté for 3 minutes, until vegetables soften. Add onion-cabbage mixture, carrots and broccoli sprouts to linguine and toss well.

Return skillet to medium heat. Add remaining 1 teaspoon oil, and pork. Cook, stirring often, until largest piece is opaque in center, about 7 minutes. With a slotted spoon, remove pork, and add to linguine mixture. Toss to combine.

Return skillet to stovetop, and heat on medium-low. Add lime juice, ginger, salt and 2 tablespoons water. With a silicone spatula or whisk, mix well to create a smooth sauce. Simmer for 1 minute, until thickened and slightly reduced. Add to linguine mixture, and toss 
to coat.
