In a medium bowl, combine orange zest and juice, soy sauce, vinegar and cornstarch; set sauce aside.
In a large non-stick skillet, heat 1 t. oil over medium heat. Working in 2 batches, cook pork until browned on one side, 1 - 2 minutes. Pork will cook more later. Transfer to a platter; set aside. Reserve skillet.
Add remaining oil, garlic and whites of green onions to the skillet. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onions wilt, 1 - 2 minutes. Add broccoli and 1/2 c. water; cover; cook until broccoli is crisp-tender and water has evaporated, 2 - 4 minutes.
Add pork with its juices and stir-fry sauce to skillet; cook, stirring, until pork is cooked through and sauce has thickened, 1 - 2 minutes.
Serve, garnished with green onion tops and over your choice of rice, if desired.
4 servings.
*Broccoli stalks are as delicious and nutritious. Use a vegetable peeler to remove the outer tough skin.
