  6. Serve the grilled pork with lime wedges on the side.

This recipe serves 4 people as a main course. For the perfect accompaniment, try serving steamed rice or a zesty Vietnamese salad of fresh herbs and crisp veggies. You can also wrap the pork slices in lettuce leaves or rice paper for a traditional Vietnamese-style meal.
