Korean Stir-Fry

Korean Stir-Fry
Yield:   4 servings
Cook Time:   15 minutes
Tips:   Any vegetables you prefer can be substituted.
Suggestion:   Delicious served with or without rice.
This healthy Korean Stir-Fry recipe features a colorful medley of colorful vegetables and thin slices of marinated pork or beef, stir-fried with a tangy sauce made with
Asian ingredients often found in Korean dishes, as well as a number of other ingredients you likely already have in your pantry.

The sauce (a portion of which is also used for the marinade) has a delicious robust and tangy flavor, and is made by combining soy sauce, rice vinegar, scallion, garlic, fresh ginger root, sesame oil, chili sauce and olive oil. The meat is first marinated in a portion of the sauce for 30 or more minutes. The remaining reserved sauce is used for adding to the vegetables and meat while stir-frying, so this meat and vegetable stir-fry dish is certainly not lacking in flavor! This recipe suggests using sugar snap peas, broccoli florets, red bell pepper and baby corns, but you can certainly substitute with any number of vegetables you enjoy, including cauliflower, pea pods, bean sprouts, bok choy, etc.
