Step 1
Toss pork slices with fish sauce, brown sugar, and minced garlic. Let sit 5 minutes while you prep the rest.
Step 2
Boil rice vermicelli in salted water until tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water.
Step 3
Heat a grill pan or cast iron skillet over medium-high until it shimmers. Working in batches, sear pork 60-90 seconds per side until edges char and the center is cooked through.
Step 4
Divide noodles into two bowls. Top with greens, bean sprouts, red onion, and the charred pork.
Step 5
Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top and drizzle with a tiny splash of fish sauce mixed with water if desired.
