Moo Shoo Recipe from Cyndi, A Glioblastoma Survivor

Posted by: Mary at NBTS on April 22, 2011 at 11:14AM UEDT

Cyndi, a glioblastoma survivor, loves to cook. She has been sending me wonderful, healthy recipes. They all taste so good. Here is a moo shoo recipe. I’m thinking we need a recipe blog soon!

Moo Shu Pork, Chicken, or Tofu

Active: 30 min Total: 40 min Serves: 4

3 tablespoons hoisin sauce, plus more for serving

3 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
3/4 pound pork tenderloin, chicken, or package tofu. Cut into thin strips.
2 tablespoons oil
8 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stemmed and sliced (I use mushroom combination)
1 bag (14 ounce) coleslaw mix
1 bunch scallions, thinly sliced
12 Bibb lettuce leaves (I have also used red leaf lettuce)

1) Whisk the hoisin sauce, vinegar, garlic and 1/2 teaspoon (or less) each salt and pepper in a large bowl. Add the meat or tofu and marinate 10 minutes.

2) Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over high heat. Remove meat or tofu from the marinade using tongs (reserve the marinade) and stir-fry until browned for about 4 minutes. Transfer the meat to a plate. Add 3 - 4 tablespoons water to the skillet, then pour the pan juices over the meat on the plate.

3) Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the skillet; when hot, add the mushrooms and stir-fry until slightly golden, about 2 minutes. Add the coleslaw mix and cook until wilted, about 3 minutes. Add the meat, the reserved marinade and half of the scallions; stir-fry 2 more minutes. Season with salt and sprinkle with the remaining scallions. Serve the stir-fry in the lettuce leaves with more hoisin sauce.

Great recipe. Thanks.

It's also good to put Moo Shoo in between two pieces of bread and eat it like a sandwich. Tastes good with noodles or steamed rice.

Thank you for your feedback Jackie! It sounds delicious with the bread.
