Step 1
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 2
Add minced garlic and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant but not brown, 30 seconds.
Step 3
Add pork slices, sprinkle with paprika and salt, then brown for 3–4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Step 4
Pour in vinegar and stir to coat. Simmer 1–2 minutes until liquid coats the pork and slightly reduces.
Step 5
Toast the bread rolls in the empty side of the skillet, 30 seconds per side, or use a separate toaster.
Step 6
Divide pork and all pan liquid between the rolls. Serve immediately, dripping hot.
