About

This recipe begins with the simplicity of Chinese Five-Spice Pork Ribs and is transformed into a nourishing bowl of broth spiked with plenty of ginger, oh-so-green bok choy, and morsels of spiced-just-right pork. And thanks to Zucchini Noodles, you can twirl, splash, and slurp to your heart’s content.

Heads up! This recipe requires you to do something in advance; plan prep time accordingly.
