3 Tbsp. reduced-sodium soy sauce

2 Tbsp. molasses

¼ tsp. ground pepper

5 tsp. cornstarch

2 Tbsp. canola oil, divided

Yakisoba Stir-Fry Noodles

Combine broth, soy sauce, molasses and pepper in a medium bowl.  Transfer 2 tablespoons of the mixture to a small bowl; stir in cornstarch until combined.  Set aside.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat.  Add pork and cook, stirring frequently, until most of the pink is gone, 2 to 3 minutes.  Transfer to a plate.

Increase heat to medium-high.  Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, bell pepper, sprouts and ginger and cook for 3 minutes.  Pour in the broth mixture and bring to a boil.  Cook, stirring, for 3 minutes.  Reduce heat to medium; add the reserved cornstarch mixture and pork (and other accumulated juice) and cook, stirring, until slightly thickened, about 1 minute.
