Steps:

• For the marinade, in a bowl, combine ingredients

• Heat a large nonstick skillet over high heat with oil, 2 turns of pan or a thin layer of spray
• Stir-fry the tofu, pork or chicken and brown well, remove to platter and cover to keep warm
• Add more oil to coat, then stir-fry mushrooms to brown and remove to a bowl
• In a separate small nonstick pan over medium-high heat, coat pan with oil, scramble eggs, add salt, brown and roll into a thin omelet
• Slide onto counter or cutting board, then slice
• Add cabbage to the same large nonstick skillet and toss 3 to 4 minutes to soften

• Add a few splashes soy, a few pinches black pepper, and a drizzle of sesame oil, then toss, add mushrooms back to the mix and cook a few minutes more
• Add egg, toss, then taste cabbage for seasoning

• Heat flour tortillas until slightly charred but still soft, warming on each side in a cast iron skillet or over a flame on a gas stovetop

Steps:

• • Wash and dry all produce. • Thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens. Quarter lime.
• • Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork* and cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned and cooked through, 4-6 minutes. TIP: If there’s excess grease in your pan, carefully pour it out.
• • Stir scallion whites and coleslaw mix into pan with pork; cook until just tender, 2-3 minutes. • Stir in sweet soy glaze, hoisin, and chili sauce until thoroughly combined. Turn off heat. • Taste and season with juice from half the lime, salt, and pepper.
• • Meanwhile, massage rice in package to break up. Partially open package and insert 1 TBSP butter (use 1 TBSP butter per package for 4 servings). Microwave according to package instructions, 90 seconds. Fluff with a fork. TIP: To make it easier to fluff the rice, transfer to a bowl first. • Divide rice between bowls and top with moo shu pork. Sprinkle with scallion greens and as many sesame seeds as you like. Serve with remaining lime wedges on the side.
