1 lb. (450 g) pork tenderloin, cut into thin strips
2 Tbsp. (30 mL) oil, divided
1 1/2 tsp. (7 mL) finely grated ginger
1 large clove garlic, chopped
2 cartons (900 mL. ea.) Knorr® Chicken Broth
6 baby bok choy (about 1-1/2 lbs./1.25 kg.), thinly sliced, stems and leaves separated
2 packages (114 g. ea.) shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and thinly sliced
3 carrots, sliced
6 ounces (180 g) uncooked rice noodles *

1 Season tenderloin, if desired, with salt and pepper. Heat 1 Tbsp (15 mL) oil in 6-qt (6L) pot over high heat and cook tenderloin, in batches if necessary, stirring occasionally, until almost done, about 3 minutes; remove and set aside.
2 Heat remaining 1 Tbsp (15 mL) oil in same pot over medium-low heat and cook ginger and garlic, stirring, until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add Knorr® Chicken Broth and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add bok choy stems, mushrooms and carrots and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook uncovered 4 minutes. Add noodles, being careful not to break them. Cook until noodles and vegetables are tender, about 4 minutes.
