We’ve survived another Monday and now it’s time for the best sort of pick-me-up TACO TUESDAYS! I have a recipe that is delicious and simple for a quick Tuesday night meal for family, friends or just yourself and Netflix. This recipe happened out of luck, the need for a a quick bite one night after taking the dog on a walk. I opened the fridge and started pulling out things that seemed to go together. I find that those are the best sort of meals, the ones that happen by accident and neccessity. I hope you find this as delicious as I did and HAPPY EATING!
Ingredients for the Tacos:
- 4 Pork Chop cut up
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 6 Tablespoons of Sweet Chili Sauce
- 1 clove of garlic minced
- Salt and Pepper to taste
- 1 Tablespoon of olive oil
- Corn tortillas
Ingredients for the Slaw:
- 1 Cucumber diced up
- 2 carrots diced up
- 1 clove of garlic
- 1 tablespoon of sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon of rice wine vinegar
- Salt and Pepper to taste
Ingredients for the Sauce:
- 1/4 cup of Manyase
- 2 Tablespoons Korean barbecue Sauce
- 3 Tablespoons of Sarcha Sauce
The creation of The Asian Tacos:
- For the pork: Cut the pork chops into small cubes. Season the pork chops with salt and pepper.
- Add the pork,soy sauce, sweet chili sauce and garlic to a bowl. Cover and allow to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- After the pork has marinated, add olive oil to a pan and wait until the oil is hot. Add the pork to the pan. Cook until the cubes of pork are white inside.
- For the slaw: Cut up the cucumbers and carrots. Place in a bowl and add the garlic, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, salt and pepper. Place in the fridge to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
- For the Sauce: Combine the manyanse, Korean Barbecue Sauce and Sarcha sauce with a fork and set aside.
- The creation of the Asian Tacos: In the same pan that you used to cook the pork, toast the tortillas. Once the tortillas are toast you are ready to assemble the tacos. I personally like meat, slaw and sauce, but feel free to get creative.
Happy Eating!
