• Serves: 6

ingredients

• 2 tablespoons oil
• 2 cups pork, cut into 1 inch pieces
• 1 1⁄2 cups onions, chopped
• 4 ounces mushrooms, sliced
• 2 cups chicken broth
• 2 cups celery, sliced
• 1⁄4 teaspoon salt
• 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
• 2 cups fresh bean sprouts
• 1⁄2 cup sliced almonds
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons cornstarch

directions

1. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat; cook and stir pork until lightly browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add onion and mushrooms and cook until slightly tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Add chicken broth, celery, salt, and black pepper; bring to a boil. Cover skillet, reduce heat to medium-low, and simmer until pork is tender, 15 to 20 minutes.
2. Mix bean sprouts and almonds into pork mixture. Whisk soy sauce and cornstarch together in a bowl until smooth; stir into pork mixture until thickened, 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Serve over chow mein noodles or hot cooked rice.
4. Note: I don’t really care for almonds in chow mein so I add a small can of water chestnuts (drained) in place of the almonds.
