Instructions
Marinade
- Add all ingredients to a medium bowl and stir until combined. Divide the marinade into two equal portions.
Moo Shu Pork
- Add the thinly sliced pork (chicken or shrimp) to half of the marinade, and toss until evenly coated. Set aside for 30 minutes.
- In the meantime, place a large saute pan over medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of oil.
- Add the whisked eggs, and let them sit and until they are cooked into an omelet.
- Transfer the eggs to a cutting board, and set them aside. Once slightly cooled, chop the omelet into small, thin pieces.
- Return the pan to the stove, and increase heat to high heat.
- Add 2 more tablespoons of oil, and using a pair of tongs lift the meat out of the marinade and transfer it to the pan into one layer. Discard the marinade.
- Cook the pork until tender, and nicely browned, about 4-5 minutes. Then transfer to a separate plate, and set aside.
- Add the remaining oil to the pan, along with the coleslaw, mushrooms, and half of the scallions. Saute for 2-3 minutes, or until the coleslaw begins to soften.
- Add the reserved marinade, and toss to combine, cook 2-3 more minutes.
- Stir in the cooked pork and chopped eggs, and toss until combined. Taste and adjust for salt, pepper, and hoisin sauce. Sprinkle with the remaining green onions.
- Serve immediately with flour tortillas, or lettuce cups, and rice on the side.
