- 2 stalks green onion

How to make it
-
Brush pork tenderloin even with Lee Kum Kee Char Siu Sauce and let marinade in the fridge for at least 30 minutes, if not overnight.
-
Let pork tenderloin come back to room temperature and preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius). Place the pork on a foil lined tray and roast for 20 minutes. Remove from oven, brush with additional Char Siu Sauce, and bake for another 5 minutes.
-
While the char siu pork roasts, you can toast the tortillas lightly in a dry pan on medium heat for 30 seconds on each side. Cover with a towel to keep warm.
-
For extra smoky flavor, grill the green onion stalks on high heat (use a grill pan if indoors) for 1-2 minutes on each side as well. Cut into piece for garnish.
-
Let the pork rest for 5 minutes before slicing. Layer 2-3 slices on each tortilla, top with coleslaw of choice, and garnish with the green onion.
