Instructions
- Rinse the rice if desired, then cook it on the stovetop according to the package directions until tender and the liquid is absorbed.
- Thinly slice the pork tenderloin, cabbage, carrot, bell pepper, and onion. Mince the garlic and finely grate the fresh ginger. Pat the pork dry, do not rinse it, then season it with kosher salt and black pepper.
- Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the pork in a single layer and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, until browned and the thickest pieces reach 145°F (63°C). Transfer the pork to a clean plate. Wash the board, knife, and hands with soap and water before touching anything else, then rest at least 3 minutes before slicing.
- Add the onion, carrot, bell pepper, and cabbage to the skillet. Season the vegetables lightly with kosher salt and stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, until fragrant and crisp-tender.
- Add the garlic and fresh ginger and stir for 30-60 seconds, until fragrant. Stir in the reduced-sodium soy sauce and rice vinegar, then return the pork and any accumulated juices to the skillet. Toss for 1-2 minutes, until the sauce lightly coats the pork and vegetables. Taste and adjust with black pepper or rice vinegar.
- Serve the stir-fry over the cooked rice.
