Korean Pork Recipe

First of all, I can not take credit for this recipe, my boy Emeril taught me how to make it. However, I will say it is DELICIOUS! My whole family likes it! I must tell you though, that my picture is not very appetizing. It needs a little green, no? Well, you're supposed to wrap it all up in Boston, Bibb or Butter lettuce, and make like a Korean burrito. However, I can not find that lettuce here in back woods country USA. Strictly iceberg...sooooo......we don't do it. LOL However, without further ado, here is the recipe:

After you purchase your pork tenderloin, be sure to pop it in the freezer for about 30-45 minutes, so it's easy to slice in 1/4" thick slices!!

Hot Sauce
(This goes on the pork before you eat it. I don't like hot stuff, so I don't put it on there, and it's still delicious!)
2 TBSP Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce
2 TBSP of sesame oil
4 tsp honey

Pork Marinade
A good 45 minutes to an hour in this marinade should do it. Last time I made this I marinated it overnight, and it didn't make a difference.
1/4 c soy sauce (we use low sodium)
1 TBSP sugar
4 tsp Sesame Oil
1/2 c chopped green onions
1 TBSP minced garlic
1 TBSP minced ginger

Whisk these together in a bowl until the sugar dissolves. Pour over pork. Marinate in refrigerator. Cook in skillet in a few drizzles of oil (I use olive, but you can use vegetable).

Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

Serve with Jasmine rice. If you can find the right lettuce, make the wrap with rice, pork, and a few dabs of the hot sauce. Believe me, you only want a few! LOL

Delicious Tuna Melts

Every morning I always ask the kids what they want to have for dinner, and sometimes I even take their suggestions into consideration...LOL. Yesterday, my oldest requested tuna melts. I love tuna melts, however with our larger family, it's not a 'cheap meal', because we need about 12 cans of tuna. Anyway, I decided to entertain the request, since it's been a while since we had them. I have to say, these were the best tuna melts EVER! My youngest even ate it while it was hot and said it was delicious! (That's how we know if something is good, if it gets eaten before we have to reheat it for him...lol) So without further ado, here's the recipe! (Remember, large family here, so you can probably cut this down if need be!)

Terrific Tuna Melts

4 crusty hoagie rolls cut in half length wise
6 12 oz cans of chunk light tuna in water, drained
1/2 jar of kalamata olives, pitted and finely chopped
3/4 c and 3 Tbsp mayo (or to taste)
1/2 finely chopped red onion
Sliced tomatoes
Provolone cheese
1 Tbsp pepper
Salt to taste

Combine tuna, olives, onion, pepper, and salt in a large bowl and stir.
Spread rolls out on baking sheet, and spread with a thin layer of mayo. Place sliced tomato over rolls. Spoon tuna mixture on top of tomatoes and top with Provolone cheese. Sprinkle with pepper. Broil for 5 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.
