Quite often Sam’s Club will have one of those huge pork loins on sale. I’ll cut that into two roasts, several meals of pork chops, and two packages of stir fry strips. Recently the grocery store had beautiful bags of those colorful small sweet peppers. They are always perfect with a dish like this!
Aside from all the vegetable chopping, you’ll spend less than 20 minutes on dinner and everyone will love it. At least they do here! Here’s the most recent recipe I’ve developed and we devoured it. Do you have a favorite stir fry?

Is this like a sweet and sour sauce. It looks very good but wanted to ask first.

This sounds (and looks) great! I love stir fry too! I’ve never heard of black vinegar however. Very interesting!
Amanda says
Renee – the first time I heard of black vinegar was from Jaden’s blog. Been using it ever since :)
Sophie says
This looks fantastic. Is there any alternative cut of pork you would use for this is loin isn’t available?
Amanda says
You can use pork tenderloin too, but it’s more expensive. That’s why I use pork loin :)
