Prepare the vegetables using the to package directions, reducing the cooking time by 2 minutes. Drain well in a colander. -
Meanwhile, in a large deep skillet or wok, heat the oil over medium heat, swirling to coat the bottom. Cook the pork and ginger for 5 minutes, or until the pork is no longer pink on the outside and tender, stirring occasionally. Remove from the heat. Transfer the pork mixture to a plate. -
Lightly spray the same skillet with cooking spray. Cook the cabbage and vegetables, still over medium heat, for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Stir in the garlic. Cook for 30 seconds, or until fragrant, stirring constantly. -
Stir in the broth and red pepper flakes. Increase the heat to high and bring to a boil. -
Stir in the noodles and teriyaki sauce. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the noodles are tender. Return the pork mixture to the skillet, stirring to combine. Sprinkle with the cilantro. Serve immediately.
Cooking Tip: You can substitute the pork for boneless, skinless chicken breasts, lean beef, such as top sirloin or flank steak, or raw peeled medium shrimp.
Keep it Healthy: You can replace the frozen vegetable for fresh ones, if you'd like. Get creative with your choices. But here's one combination to try: 10 trimmed snow peas, 5 ounces sliced mushrooms, 4 sliced green onions, and 2 medium carrots cut into matchstick-size strips.
Tip: Have fish sauce or oyster sauce on hand? If so, you can use 2 tablespoons soy sauce plus 2 tablespoons fish sauce or oyster sauce in place of the 1/4 cup teriyaki sauce or soy sauce.
