Ingredients

1 lb pork stew meat (cubed)

1 red bell pepper, chopped

Sear the pork:

Heat garlic-infused oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork and sear until browned on all sides, about 6–8 minutes.

Add veggies:

Reduce heat to medium. Add zucchini and red bell pepper. Stir and cook for another 6–8 minutes, until veggies are tender but not mushy.

Sprinkle with Italian seasoning or paprika, and salt to taste. Stir to coat everything evenly.

Finish and serve:

Remove from heat and garnish with chopped basil or parsley if desired. Serve as-is or over a bed of rice or quinoa.
