This dish get a lift from a pan sauce made with savory-sweet hoisin sauce and citrusy ponzu––a beloved Japanese condiment. For more dynamic flavor, we're serving the pork with a side of rice cooked with a classic trio of aromatics: garlic, ginger, and scallions.

Wash and dry the broccoli. Cut off and discard the bottom 1/2 inch of the stem; cut the broccoli into small florets. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. In a bowl, combine the ponzu sauce, hoisin sauce, and vinegar.
Carefully rinse the rice (sifting through for any impurities). Drain thoroughly. In a medium pot, combine the rice, sautéed aromatics, a big pinch of salt, and 2 cups of water. Heat to boiling on high. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, without stirring, 13 to 15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Turn off the heat and fluff with a fork.
Meanwhile, in a large pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat the sesame oil on medium-high until hot. Add the broccoli florets; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add 1/4 cup of water (carefully, as the liquid may splatter). Loosely cover the pan with foil and cook, without stirring, 2 to 3 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender and the water has cooked off. Add the chopped garlic. Cook, stirring frequently, 1 to 2 minutes, or until softened. Transfer to a bowl. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Cover with foil to keep warm. Wipe out the pan.
Pat the pork dry with paper towels. Season with salt and pepper on both sides. In the same pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the seasoned pork. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, or until lightly browned. Flip and cook 3 minutes. Add the butter and glaze (carefully, as the liquid may splatter). Cook, frequently spooning the glaze over the pork, 1 to 2 minutes for medium (the center may still be slightly pink), or until the pork is coated and cooked to your desired degree of doneness.* Turn off the heat. Serve the cooked pork (including any glaze from the pan) with the cooked rice and cooked broccoli. Garnish with the sesame seeds. Enjoy!
*The USDA recommends a minimum safe cooking temperature of 145°F for pork.
