Pork & Asparagus Stir Fry


Ingredients

1 teaspoon grated orange zest, plus 1/4 cup juice
1/4 cup low salt soy sauce
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 boneless pork chops, thinly sliced
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 8 oz water chestnuts
6 button mushrooms, sliced
1 bunch of fresh asparagus

Directions
In a medium bowl combine orange zest, juice, soy sauce, vinegar and cornstarch. Set aside.
In a large skillet heat the vegetable oil over medium high heat. Put the pork in the skillet and brown 2 minutes on each side. Transfer to a plate.
Then add the water chestnuts and garlic and cook for 2 minutes (careful...it's going to spit at you a bit). Add the asparagus and 1/2 cup of water. Cover and cook for 3 minutes. Uncover, add the mushrooms and cook for an additional 3 minutes until the water evaporates.
Add the pork and the orange mixture. Cook for 3 minutes until pork is cooked through and the orange mixture thickens. Serve over rice.
