Preparation
Mise en place
- Preheat the oven to 450°F.
- Thinly slice the scallions.
- Remove the bottom ½ inch of the yu choy stems; cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces.
- Halve the lime; juice ½ and cut the remaining ½ into 2 wedges.

- Return the pork*, transfer to the oven and roast, turning halfway, 8 to 12 min., until cooked through.
- Transfer to a cutting board and let rest before slicing.
Sauté the vegetables
- In a large pan, heat a generous drizzle of oil on medium-high.
- Add the remaining ginger and sauté, 30 sec. to 1 min., until fragrant.
- Add the mushrooms and sauté, 3 to 4 min., until nicely browned.
- Add the yu choy and sauté, 2 to 3 min., until wilted; season with the remaining spices.
Plate your dish
