Asian Pork and Noodle Skillet

I always love to try out new recipes, so when I saw this recipe, I was really excited to try it.  I was so excited when it was finally done and time to eat, this meal was sooooo good!  My husband and 16 month old had 2 helpings  of it.  My 16 month old kept shoveling it in her mouth.  I guess that's a sign she likes it.



Asian Pork and Noodle Skillet


2 medium carrots, peeled
1 medium red bell pepper
5-6 green onions
2 pork tenderloins (about 1 pound each)
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons Asian Seasoning Mix
4 packages oriental-flavor ramen noodles
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
4 cups water


Cut carrots into julienne strips.  Cut bell petter lengthwise into 1/4 inch strips.  Slice green onions.


Using a boning knife, trim fat and silver skin from pork tenderloins.  Slice pork lengthwise into four strips.  Thinly slice strips crosswise.  Combine pork, sesame oil, seasoning mix and two of the ramen seasoning packets in a bowl; mix well.


Add vegetable oil to a skillet, heat over medium-high heat 1-3 minutes or until shimmering.  Add half of the pork.  Cook and stir 2-3 minutes or until browned; remove pork from skillet and keep warm.  Repeat with remaining pork.


Add carrots and bell pepper to skillet.  Cook 1-2 minutes or until crisp-tender.  Add water and remaining ramen seasoning packets; stir to loosen browned bits from bottom of skillet.  Add ramen noodles and white parts of green onions to skillet.  Cover; bring to a boil and cook 4-5 minutes or until noodles are softened.  Add pork; stir to break apart noodles.  Remove skillet from heat; let stand, covered, 3-4 minutes or until pork is heated through.
