Ginger-Soy Pork Tenderloin with Bok Choy & Snow Peas (Stove)

Fast, bright, and deeply cozy: tender pork tenderloin (massive sale) gets a quick stove sear and a gingery glaze, then you toss in in-season bok choy and snow peas for a crisp, glossy stir-fry-style dinner. Serve over rice if you have it—or enjoy as-is for a lighter bowl.

Ingredients

  • Kroger® Fresh Natural Pork Tenderloin 1 lb pork tenderloin $3.99 sale (reg $8.29) / 1 lb
  • Organic Baby Bok Choy 10–12 oz, halved or chopped $3.99 / 1 lb
  • Kroger® Brand Snow Peas 8 oz $3.89 / 8 oz
  • Organic Ginger Root 1 tbsp finely grated (about a 1-inch knob) $5.99 / 1 lb
  • Sweet or yellow onion 1/2 onion, thinly sliced $2.19–$5.49 (see list)
  • Neutral oil (canola/avocado) 2 tbsp, divided
  • Soy sauce 2 1/2 tbsp
  • Honey or brown sugar 1–2 tbsp
  • Rice vinegar or apple cider vinegar 1 tbsp
  • Cornstarch (optional, for glossy sauce) 1 tsp mixed with 2 tsp water
  • Cooked rice (optional) 1–1 1/2 cups cooked, for serving

Instructions

  1. Prep: Trim any silver skin from the tenderloin. Slice pork into 1/2-inch medallions for quick cooking. Halve/chop bok choy; string snow peas if needed. Mix sauce: soy sauce + honey + vinegar + grated ginger (and the cornstarch slurry if using).
  2. Sear the pork: Heat a large skillet or wok on medium-high. Add 1 tbsp oil. Sear pork in a single layer (work in batches if needed) 2–3 minutes per side until browned and just cooked through. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Stir-fry the vegetables: Add remaining 1 tbsp oil. Add onion; cook 1 minute. Add bok choy (stems first if separated) and snow peas; stir-fry 3–5 minutes until crisp-tender.
  4. Glaze: Return pork (and juices) to the pan. Pour in the sauce and toss 30–90 seconds until glossy and coating everything. If it thickens too much, splash in 1–2 tbsp water.
  5. Serve: Spoon over rice if using, or serve as a hearty vegetable-forward plate.

Health notes: Approx. 550–750 kcal per serving (lower without rice). Lean protein, lots of vegetables, and a lighter sauce. Watch sodium (soy sauce); choose low-sodium if available and taste before adding extra salt.

Drink pairing: Wine: off-dry Riesling from Washington (Columbia Valley) is excellent with ginger and soy. Beer: a crisp pilsner or lager.
