Kicked-Up Recipe ⇾ Kicked-Up Ground Pork with Green Beans

So quick and easy to make on a weeknight. I love it as a low-carb option on its own. Or serve over hot rice.

Ingredients

• 2 teaspoons sesame oil
• 1 pound ground pork
• 2 teaspoons ground black pepper, divided
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 1 pinch salt
• 2 ½ cups fresh green beans, trimmed
• ¼ cup chicken stock
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
• 2 teaspoons chile-garlic sauce, or to taste
• 2 teaspoons rice vinegar
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic
• 1 teaspoon white sugar

Cooking Directions

1. Heat sesame oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
2. Combine pork, 1 teaspoon black pepper, cornstarch, and salt in a bowl. Add to hot oil and fry until browned, about 3 minutes. Add green beans.
3. Combine chicken stock, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, chile-garlic sauce, vinegar, garlic, and sugar in a bowl and whisk together. Add to pork and green bean mixture. Bring to a boil. Cook until slightly thickened, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat and simmer until green beans are tender, about 5 minutes more.
