Ingredients
2 tbsp peanut oil
1¼ lb pork filets
10 oz fresh asparagus, cut into 2-inch pieces
½ cup plum sauce
2 tbsp light soy sauce
Directions
Cut the pork filets into thin, bite-sized slices, about 1/4 inch thick.
In a small bowl, combine the plum sauce and light soy sauce, stirring until well blended.
Heat the peanut oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat until shimmering, about 1 minute.
Add the pork slices to the hot skillet and cook, stirring frequently, until they reach an internal temperature of 145°F and are no longer pink, approximately 5-6 minutes. Transfer the cooked pork to a plate.
Add the asparagus pieces to the same skillet and stir-fry over high heat until they are tender-crisp with light browning, about 4-5 minutes.
Return the pork to the skillet with the asparagus. Pour in the plum sauce mixture and stir constantly to coat all ingredients evenly.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for about 2-3 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce thickens slightly and coats the pork and vegetables.
Serve immediately while hot over rice or your preferred starch.
