Half a Bunch Green Onionschopped
1tbspAvocado Oil

Instructions
In a bowl, add the soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, sweetener, garlic, ginger, chili flakes, salt and pepper. Whisk until well combined. If you prefer a thicker sauce, you can add xanthan gum at this point. Sprinkle it over the sauce while whisking to avoid clumps. Allow it to sit for a few minutes to thicken.
Add the pork strips to a bowl and pat dry with a clean paper towel.
Season with salt and pepper.
In a large skillet or wok, heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork strips and cook until browned on all sides and no longer pink, about 5-6 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add the garlic and ginger and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets and beef broth to the skillet and cook until the broccoli is tender-crisp, about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Pour in the sauce and stir until everything is nicely coated. Continue cooking until the pork is cooked through and the broccoli is tender or you achieve the texture you prefer. Turn off the heat then stir in the green onions, reserving a few for garnish.
Transfer to bowls (it's great over cauliflower 'rice!') and top with more green onions and sesame seeds, if desired.
