Make It

2. Soak rice vermicelli noodles following pkg directions, 8 minutes. Drain and rinse.

3. Heat grill pan. Grill pork for 3 minutes, then flip and grill an additional 2 to 3 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and cut into thin strips. In large bowl, combine nappa cabbage, cilantro leaves, mint leaves and scallions with the noodles. Toss with remaining dressing and top with pork.
