Serves 4
Total time: 12 minutes
Ingredients
2 lbs ground pork (ground chicken works too)
2 garlic cloves, finely grated 2 tsp Sriracha, hot chili paste (sambal oelek), or sweet Thai chili sauce (optional)
2 tsp toasted sesame oil
1 tsp fish sauce
1/2 cup cilantro leaves, finely chopped, plus more for serving
1 tsp kosher salt
2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
Assemble It
Using a wooden spoon or spatula, mix pork, garlic, Sriracha (if using), sesame oil, fish sauce, 1/4 cup cilantro, and 1/2 tsp. salt in a large bowl until well combined.
Shape pork mixture into 4 patties, slightly larger in diameter than an English muffin (about 4").
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium. Working in batches if necessary, fry patties until browned on both sides and cooked through 6–8 minutes.
Serve over rice and chopped, cooked greens (like bok choy or broccoli).
Keep It Easy
Lots of leftover ideas:
Serve on an English muffin with a fried egg on top for a high-protein breakfast.
Instead of meat patties, you can make this meal come together even quicker by cooking the ground meat and using it as a protein base throughout the week.
