Pistachio Free Pork and Cabbage Stir-Fry

This sizzling skillet dinner is the kind of weeknight meal that looks and tastes like you put in way more effort than you actually did. Tender slices of pork tenderloin get a quick marinade of coconut aminos, turmeric, and ground ginger before hitting a screaming-hot pan, building a gorgeous sear in just a couple of minutes. The vegetables — crisp carrot matchsticks, shredded green cabbage, and fresh scallions — stir-fry fast and stay bright, with just enough bite to keep things interesting. Everything comes together in a glossy, tangy sauce made from coconut aminos, apple cider vinegar, fresh ginger, and arrowroot starch, which thickens beautifully and coats every piece. For anyone navigating tree nut allergies or sensitivities, this recipe is naturally free of nuts in any form — no garnishes, no hidden oils, nothing to second-guess. A squeeze of lime and a handful of fresh cilantro at the end lift the whole dish and make it feel genuinely restaurant-worthy. It's bold, satisfying, and comes together in one pan with ingredients that are easy to find and trust.
