Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup beef broth
  • 2 tablespoons reduced sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon ketchup
  • 1 tablespoon rice vinegar
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 pound thin boneless pork chops, cut, across grain, 1/4-inch thick
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 pounds sweet potatoes (about 2 large), peeled, quartered lengthwise and sliced crosswise 1/4-inch thick
  • 2 green peppers, cored, seeded and cut into 1/2-inch-thick strips

Make It

1. In bowl, mix broth, soy sauce, ketchup, vinegar, cornstarch and red pepper flakes until smooth. Set aside.

2. Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Season with salt. Remove to plate and keep warm.

3. Add remaining 1 tablespoon oil to skillet; saute sweet potatoes and peppers over medium-high heat for 8 minutes. Add 1 cup water and simmer, covered, on medium-low for 6 minutes, until sweet potato is tender, stirring occasionally.

4. Stir in broth mixture and cooked pork and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 1 minute, until sauce is thickened and meat is heated through. Serve immediately.
