Stages of cooking
-
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil; cook the linguine at a boil until tender yet firm to the bite, 8 to 9 minutes; drain.
-
Meanwhile, whisk soy sauce, vinegar, cornstarch, sugar, and sesame oil together in a small bowl.
-
Heat canola oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add snap peas and onion; cook and stir until onion is translucent, about 2 minutes. Add pork, mushrooms, red bell pepper, 1/3 of the garlic, and ginger; cook until pork is no longer pink, about 2 minutes.
-
Add remaining garlic to the skillet and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Pour in soy sauce mixture; cook and stir until sauce thickens, about 1 minute. Remove from the heat.
-
Stir linguine into the skillet until coated; sprinkle green onions over top.
