Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Whisk ginger, soy sauce, and mirin in a small bowl until combined.

  2. Step 2

    Heat a large skillet over medium-high until a drop of water flicks and sizzles.

  3. Step 3

    Working in two batches, sear pork slices 90 seconds per side without moving. Transfer to a plate.

  4. Step 4

    Return all pork to the skillet and pour in the ginger sauce, tossing to coat evenly.

  5. Step 5

    Add cabbage and toss until wilted and glazed, about 2 minutes. The sauce should cling to both.

  6. Step 6

    Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.

Tools you’ll need

  • 12-inch skillet (cast iron or stainless steel)
