Five-spice powder is a punchy combination of Szechuan peppercorns, star anise, whole cloves, cinnamon, and fennel seeds. To make things easy, use a store-bought mix.

Ingredients

Uncooked lean boneless pork loin roast

1½ pound(s), boneless roast, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks

Carrots

1 cup(s), thick matchstick-cut

Fresh ginger

1 piece(s), (2-inch) fresh, peeled and minced

Garlic

6 clove(s), minced

Five-spice powder

1 tsp

Chicken broth

1½ cup(s)

Hoisin sauce

¼ cup(s)

Soy sauce

2 Tbsp

Cornstarch

1 Tbsp

Broccoli

16 oz, 1 bag frozen (stir-fry vegetables)

Unsalted toasted sesame seeds

2 tsp

Instructions

  1. Combine pork, carrots, ginger, garlic, and five-spice powder in 5- or 6-quart slow cooker. Whisk together broth and hoisin sauce in large glass measure; pour over pork and vegetables. Cover and cook until pork is fork-tender, 4–5 hours on High or 8–10 hours on Low.
  2. With slotted spoon, transfer pork to medium bowl; cover to keep warm.
  3. Whisk together soy sauce and cornstarch in small bowl until smooth. Whisk into slow cooker. Cover and cook until mixture simmers, about 10 minutes on High. Stir in stir-fry vegetables. Cover and cook until vegetables are tender, about 45 minutes. Return pork to slow cooker and cook until heated through, about 10 minutes longer. Serve sprinkled with sesame seeds.
  4. Per serving: about 1 cup
