peppery pork, peanut, and watercress stir fry

great great great recipe... honey roasted peanuts with peppered pork and delicious watercress.  pretty fast meal.  
Ingredients:
1 1/4 pounds boneless pork chops or tenderloin, trimmed of ext. fat
1 tbs mixed pepper seasoning
3 tbs peanut or vegetable oil
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 large bunches or 4 oz. bags watercress, thickest stems removed
2/3 c chicken broth
2 tbs soy sauce
1/3 c honey-roasted peanuts
Directions:
1. Cut pork crosswise into thin strips.  (If using tenderloin, first cut into 1/2-in.-thick slicesIt's easiest to do this if the meat is partially frozen.) Sprinkle the pork strips with the pepper seasoning, tossing to coat.
2. In a large, heavy skillet (or wok), heat only 2 tbs. of the oil over high heat.  Add the pork and cook, undisturbed, until it begins to blacken a bit on the bottom, 1-2 min.  Stir and cook 1 more min. until the meat is no longer pink inside.  Using a slotted spoon, remove the strips to a plate.
3. Reduce the heat to med-hi and add the remaining tbs. of oil to the pan.  Add the garlic and half the watercress and cook, turning with tongs, until the watercress begins to wilt; then add the remaining watercress.  Cook, turning, about one min.  Return the pork and any accumulated juices to the pan, add the broth and soy sauce, and simmer for 1 min. to blend the flavors.  Sprinkle with the peanuts before serving.
