1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, divided

1/2 cup frozen green peas, thawed

1 tablespoon rice vinegar

Cooking spray

1 pound pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch pieces

1/2 cup chopped Vidalia or other sweet onion

3 tablespoons dark brown sugar

1 tablespoon lower-sodium soy sauce

1 teaspoon bottled ground fresh ginger

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
