Pork stir fry is ready in less than 20 minutes and my whole family loves this low carb stir fry recipe!
Lately I have been all about the one-dish dinners like this easy pork stir fry recipe! I love a quick skillet meal. It makes life so easy and the clean up is minimal.
I’m also pretty in love with Asian flavors lately.
Now, I won’t claim to be making anything super authentic here. I live in the middle of the United States, surrounded my corn fields.
That said, my version of stir fry is pretty darn good, if I do say so myself. But I don’t have to say so! My family does it for me, by way of asking for this stir fry alllll the dang time. The stir fry sauce is killer, you guys. And so easy!
This pork stir fry recipe is ready in just 30 minutes!
Anyway, I started this meal out with a pork sirloin from Smithfield. I’ve been working with them for about a year now to bring you creative and easy recipes featuring their marinated fresh pork. Sometimes those packages of pork can be intimidating. They’re a fairly large hunk of meat and that immediately makes people think they’re for special occasions or for days when you have hours to spend in the kitchen. Well, I’m here to prove to you that this is not the case!
This pork stir fry starts with a Peppercorn & Garlic Pork Sirloin and is ready in less than 30 minutes! They key is slicing the meat thinly and then cooking it. I made you a video so you can see just how simple this recipe actually is!
The stir fry sauce is a little sweet and a little sour, from a combination of vinegar and honey with the soy sauce. I also added in plenty of fresh garlic!
Go forth and stir fry all the things! You won’t regret it for a second. Serve this with my sausage egg rolls and some steamed rice! If you’re looking for more quick pork recipes, check out my pork enchilada skillet or my pork Milanese with cream cheese noodles!

John @ Johnsoven says
It’s so easy to make it I’m gonna wow! I’ve got a Q on the rice garnish, though – how long do you spend cooking it? I normally only boil it but it doesn’t get as grainy as I’d like and turns a bit soggy.
Karly says
When I cook rice, I bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cover, then cook for about 15 minutes. At that point I turn off the heat and let it steam for 5 minutes. 🙂

Thanks for the quick reply! Awesome tip 🙂

I like quick easy recipes like this (reminds me of your hamburger helper). I also love combining honey and hoisin sauce, I usually do that for marinating or glazing BBQs.
Holly N @Spend With Pennies says
I’m crazy about stir fry, it’s definitely one of my favorites! I normally opt for chicken but after seeing this one I’m definitely going to try it with pork! I’m loving how simple your sauce is too!
Karly says
Hope you give it a try! 🙂

This sounds perfect! I’ve been loving Asian flavors too, recently. But I’m like you — I live in the middle of Virginia’s countryside…so it’s not exactly authentic cuisine. But who cares? It tastes amazing! And I bet your sauce is to-die-for. Can’t beat that easy one skillet dinner!
Keith @ How's it Lookin? says
Looks so good. I usually have chicken stir fry so I want to try this one, thanks for sharing
Jassmin says
How much of pork should I use? In pounds/kg etc?
Kaye says
Hi! Making this recipe tonight for dinner. I have lots of asian condiments in my refrigerator but not chili paste so substituting Chili Puree with garlic. Would love a picture of your chili paste to help me buy it the next time I’m in the asian store. Thank you!
Kaye says
P.S. Also wondering what type of vinegar, white, rice, cider? Thanks!
Kaye says
Last comment! : ) Just found some Thai Kitchen Roasted Chili Paste in the refrigerator! I guess I must have needed it for another recipe. OK – Thanks again!!!
Karly says
That will be perfect! Chili paste is super similar to sriracha, just a cleaner flavor without the garlic, so either would work. 🙂
And I use white vinegar here.
