Step 1
Thinly slice the 1 lb pork tenderloin into bite-size strips. Heat a large skillet over medium-high and cook the pork until browned and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes. Set aside.
Step 2
Whisk together the juice of 2 limes, 2 tbsp fish sauce, and 1 tbsp sugar in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves. This is your dressing.
Step 3
Shred the 2 carrots and 0.5 head of cabbage into a large bowl. Add the cooked pork and pour the dressing over. Toss well to combine.
Step 4
Garnish with fresh cilantro, sliced chili, and green onion if you have them. Serve immediately.
