Add 1/4 cup water to the skillet and bring to a simmer. Stir in asparagus, pepper and green onion. Reduce heat to medium and cover. Cook 5 minutes, uncover and continue to cook until asparagus is fork tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer vegetables to bowl with pork. Whisk broth mixture and add to skillet.
