Crunchy veggies and Asian flavors make this a great wrap for summer. You can substitute a baguette for the wrap, or switch up the meat for five-spice chicken or spicy beef. Even lemongrass shrimp would be delicious! —Nicole Hood, Leesville, Lousiana

Ingredients

  • 4 boneless pork loin chops (4 ounces each)
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup sweet chili sauce, divided
  • 2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
  • 1-1/4 cups shredded lettuce
  • 1 medium carrot, peeled and shredded
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 4 bread wraps (9 inches)
  • 1/4 cup reduced-fat mayonnaise
  • 1 small cucumber, peeled and sliced into 3-inch strips
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 green onions, chopped
  • 1/2 jalapeno pepper, seeded and thinly sliced
  • Sriracha chili sauce

Directions

  1. Sprinkle pork chops with pepper. In a large cast-iron or other heavy skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add chops; cook for 2-3 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 145°. Combine 1/4 cup sweet chili sauce with soy sauce; pour over chops. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook and stir until sauce is slightly thickened, 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat.
  2. Combine lettuce and carrot with rice vinegar; set aside. When pork is cool enough to handle, slice into 2-in.-long strips; return to skillet to coat with sauce. Toast bread wraps lightly, then spread with mayonnaise.
  3. Spoon pork evenly over wraps. Cover with lettuce mixture, cucumber, cilantro, green onions and jalapeno. Top with remaining sweet chili sauce. Fold wraps over filling and serve immediately with Sriracha sauce.
Peppers (Hot)
Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
