For an even more intense flavor, consider marinating the pork overnight. If you don't have a cast-iron skillet, any heavy-bottomed pan will work. Adjust the amount of sriracha to your desired level of spice. Serve with steamed rice and your favorite Asian vegetables for a complete meal.

01 Step

02 Step
Recipe View 35 mins Marinate the Pork: In a bowl, whisk together the rice vinegar, minced garlic, Asian fish sauce, soy sauce, sriracha, sea salt, black pepper, and Chinese five-spice powder. Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring each piece is thoroughly coated.
