Ingredients

• ¼ cup olive oil

• 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon lime juice
• ½ cup chopped fresh cilantro
• 2 tablespoons olive oil, divided

• 1 pound pork tenderloin, thinly sliced

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Whisk together 1/4 cup olive oil, 1/2 cup cilantro, ginger, and garlic in a large glass or ceramic bowl. Add the pork and toss to evenly coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and marinate in the refrigerator overnight.

Step 2

Remove the pork from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard used marinade.

Step 3

Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a wok over high heat. Stir-fry pork in the hot oil until browned, about 10 minutes. Set pork aside.

Step 4

Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to wok; stir in onions until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Stir in red bell pepper for 3 more minutes. Return pork to wok. Add lime juice and 1/2 cup cilantro. Cook and stir until cilantro has wilted, about 1 minute.
