Recipe of the Week

Pork and Brussels Sprouts Stir-Fry - Thank you Rachel Ray!

What You Need:
3 tbsp. oil
1/2 lb boneless pork loin chops, cut into 1/4 inch thick strips
1 lb brussels sprouts, halved
2 scallions, whites and greens sliced separately
2 cloves garlic, chopped
1/3 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp. brown sugar

What You Do:
Heat 1 tbsp. oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; add pork and cook until golden; transfer to plate. 

Add remaining 2 tbsp. oil and sprouts to pan; cook, stirring occasionally, until brown and tender, 5 to 8 minutes. 

Add scallion whites and garlic; cook 1 minute.  Add soy sauce, brown sugar and 1/4 cup water; cook until sauce is slightly thickened. 

Return pork to pan and toss to coat.  Top with scallion greens. 

Mark and I both really loved this and he particularly liked the bits of brussels sprouts that were dark brown and a little crusty.  Bonus, this is supper quick and easy to make!
