Spaghetti Squash & Pork Stir-Fry

Ingredients

1 3-pound spaghetti squash

1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed

2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil

5 medium scallions, thinly sliced

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger

1/2 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

1 teaspoon Asian red chile sauce, such as sriracha, or chile oil

Directions

1. Preheat oven to 350°F.

2. Cut squash in half. Scoop out and discard seeds. Place each half, cut-side down, on a baking sheet. Bake until the squash is tender, about 1 hour. Let cool for 10 minutes then shred the flesh with a fork into a bowl. Discard the shell.

3. Slice pork into thin rounds; cut each round into matchsticks.

4. Heat a large wok over medium-high heat. Swirl in oil, then add scallions, garlic, ginger and salt; cook, stirring, until fragrant, 30 seconds.

5. Add the pork; cook, stirring constantly, until just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.

6. Add the squash threads and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.

7. Add soy sauce, rice vinegar and chile sauce (or chile oil); cook, stirring constantly, until aromatic, about 30 seconds.
