Ingredients

• 8 ounces wide rice noodles
• 1 pound lean ground pork
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh mint, divided
• 6 teaspoons fish sauce, divided
• 2 tablespoons sweet red chili sauce
• 2 tablespoons lime juice
• 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil
• 1 12-ounce bag broccoli slaw
• Lime wedges for serving

Directions

1. Bring 5 cups water to a boil in a large pot over high heat. Add noodles and cook, stirring frequently, until just tender, 4 to 6 minutes, or according to package directions. Drain, rinse well with cold water and let stand in the colander to drain.

2. Meanwhile, combine pork, 1 tablespoon mint and 2 teaspoons fish sauce in a bowl. Form the mixture into eight 3-inch patties.

3. Heat a large grill pan or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Coat with cooking spray, add the patties, partially cover and cook for 3 minutes. Turn over and cook for 3 minutes, then turn back over and cook on the first side again until cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes more.

4. Combine the remaining 4 teaspoons fish sauce, chili sauce, lime juice and sesame oil in a large bowl. Add the rice noodles and broccoli slaw and gently toss until well combined. Serve the pork patties on the noodles, sprinkled with the remaining 1 tablespoon mint. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
