From Mendota, Illinois, Kim Marie Van Rheenen shares her recipe for an easy all-in-one skillet supper that's brimming with fresh-from-the-garden flavor. It's a tasty way to make the most of seasonal produce--from your backyard veggie patch or the farmers market.
Ingredients
1 pound boneless pork loin, cut into 3/4-in. cubes
2 cups julienned zucchini
1/2 pound fresh mushrooms, sliced
1 medium onion, cut into wedges
1 cup julienned green pepper
1 tablespoon cornstarch
3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon cold water
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
hot cooked rice
Directions
In a large skillet or wok coated with cooking spray, stir-fry the pork until no longer pink, about 4 minutes. Add the zucchini, mushrooms, onion and green pepper; stir-fry for 3 minutes or until crisp-tender.
In a small bowl, combine the cornstarch, soy sauce, water and garlic powder until smooth. Add to the skillet. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with rice.
