These are so easy and so stinkin' good! I made them the other day for a cater out at the restaurant, I got to decide what to make for a client.....on the chance that there would be someone out there that liked to eat like I did, I made lettuce wraps. They are light, flavorful and a bonus? lowfat....oh and they were the hit of the party! Yay!
Just a few ingredients: cooked chopped pork, mild onions, cucumber, cilantro, and teriyaki sauce...
You start with a couple pounds of pork tenderloin, you marinate it in either a homemade teriyaki sauce or a one premade from the grocery store...I went premade...slice the meat in 1 inch slices and the marinate in a dish covered with the sauce for at least 2 hours or overnight....BBQ on the grill until done and has lots of charred edges...put in the fridge until cold...all this can be done the day before...then chop the pork until very small about 1/2 inch squares...you will be tempted to eat all the charred pieces as you go but try to refrain....they are so good, you can't stop at one...I speak from experience....
this is not measured out, just eye balled...about 2 cups of pork, 1 cup of loosely chopped, peeled and seeded cucumber, 1 cup of green onion, 1 cup of chopped cilantro....now ready for the dressing...
I added a spoon of minced ginger and a tsp of dried chili peppers....I like both of those flavors, but if you don't you can omit it....add a 1/4 cup of the teriyaki sauce and stir...add to the meat mixture...you want just enough to lightly coat the mixture....and that is it!
These are so good. The are flavorful and crisp and light. Great for an appetizer or an entree! You can make them with chicken using the same procedure or with shrimp....enjoy!
Cheers to Happy !!!
