Instructions for the simple pork recipe:

For the rice:

• In a large sauce pan combine the rice and water, stir well. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling cover and reduce heat to low. Cook on low for 30 minutes. Remove lid, and fluff with a fork. Set aside to cool.

For the pork:

• In a small mixing bowl combine salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Rub evenly on the pork tenderloin. Slice thinly into strips of cubes. Heat sesame oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat.
• Once hot, add in sliced pork and sauté 3-4 minutes until the pork starts to brown and release from the pan. Keep the heat at medium-high, add in the soy sauce, honey, fish sauce, vinegar, and garlic. Stir to combine.
• Simmer over medium-high heat for 5-6 more minutes. The sauce should begin to thicken and reduce and the pork should be cooked through.
• Serve pork over a bed of rice topped with extra sauce. Garnish with limes, cilantro, and green onion as desired. Leftover pork and sauce can be kept in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
