It can be tough to get kids, along with some picky grownups, to eat string beans. But char the colorful veggie in a hot skillet, toss it with ground pork in a sweet and savory sauce and watch the beans disappear _ maybe even before the dish makes it onto the table.
This tasty stir-fry is super simple and super quick _ it will take longer to boil or steam the rice it's served alongside than to cook the meat and beans. I used homemade teriyaki sauce to make it gluten-free, but it's perfectly acceptable to substitute bottled sauce. Red pepper flakes add a touch of heat, cutting the sweetness of the sauce. Don't forget the pickled jalapenos for a crunchy finish.
