Pork 'n' Napa Cabbage image

"I've been making this one-dish pork dinner for more than 20 years," writes Lisa Thomason from Ingleside, Illinois. "And it's always been a favorite. It's fast, flavorful and easy to double for guests." TASTY TIP: Use fresh ginger and more red pepper to kick up the heat; add shredded carrots for extra color.
