Our Easy Pork Stir Fry recipe is ready in about 20 minutes! This is such an easy recipe to get on the table, packed with bold flavors, and perfect for serving over rice or with noodles.
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. You can eat it just like this and keep the carb count low or you can serve it over a pile of rice…either way is tasty!
A few other favorite one dish dinners are my one pot spaghetti and chicken florentine pasta.
Now, before we get too far into this Pork Stir Fry, let me just preface it by saying I won’t claim to be making anything super authentic here. I live in the middle of the United States, surrounded by 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!
Table of Contents
Pork Stir Fry Ingredients:
Pork Sirloin – You’ll need about 1 pound. Can also use tenderloin, chopped center cut pork chops, or pork loin.
Vegetables – We used fresh broccoli and bell peppers, but carrots, cauliflower, green beans, sugar snap peas, and baby corn are all great options.
Sauce – Soy sauce, hoisin sauce, vinegar, honey, chili paste, ginger, (or sriracha), and garlic make for a simple but flavorful sauce.
What We Love About This Recipe:
- Everything cooks in one skillet for easy clean up!
- Ready in just 30 minutes!
- That stir fry sauce is an easy way to get my kids to eat their veggies!
- Bulk it up by serving over rice or noodles or keep it lower in carbs and enjoy your veggies.
- The sauce is super simple – a little sweet, a little sour, and loaded with garlic.
My Favorite Wok!
We love this non-stick wok. It’s easy (and fun!) to cook with, is dishwasher safe, and is a nice, large size so you can feed the whole family.
How to Make Easy Pork Stir Fry Recipe:
Pork: Slice your pork thin. Heat some oil in your wok or a large, deep skillet until very hot. Add the pork and cook for 2-3 minutes to brown on the outside.
Veggies: Add some more oil to the pan and toss in the veggies. . Cook while stirring often until the veggies have softened up and the pork is about cooked through.
Sauce: Stir fry wouldn’t be complete without a sauce to go with it! Just mix together the soy, hoisin, vinegar, honey, garlic, ginger, and chili paste. Pour it into the wok and cook, stirring constantly, until the vegetables are done to your liking and the sauce is coating everything nicely.
Serving Suggestions:
Serve this with my sausage egg rolls (or make air fryer egg rolls) and some steamed rice! This is also tasty with our bacon fried rice!

Made this recipe for family dinner on Sunday. Huge it. It is so flavorful!! I substitued chicken because I was out of pork. Next time will try with pork as well. Yumm!!
Karly says
I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the review, Dianna!
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.
Kaye says
P.S. Also wondering what type of vinegar, white, rice, cider? Thanks!
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!
Jassmin says
How much of pork should I use? In pounds/kg etc?
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
Blair says
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!
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! 🙂
Sheryl says
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.
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. 🙂
John Storeys says
Thanks for the quick reply! Awesome tip 🙂
