Here is the recipe; which I changed to fit my needs.
Ingredients
4 boneless top loin pork chops, cut 1-inch thick
Vegetable oil cooking spray
Marinade:
1/2 cup hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon of lime juice
Wraps:
2 large heads butterhead lettuce, leaves separated
2 medium carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch matchsticks
1/2 English cucumber, cut into 2-inch matchsticks
2 ounces thin rice noodles (vermicelli-style)
16 sprigs fresh cilantro, stems removed
Sauce:
1/4 cup prepared Thai sweet chili sauce
1/4 cup prepared Thai peanut sauce
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
Directions
1. Marinate pork in marinate ingredients. Refrigerate 1to 4 hours
2. Cook pork in a lightly sprayed pan. Sear, 3 minutes per side. Continue to cook until the internal temperature reaches 155 degrees F, about 9 minutes longer. Transfer to cutting board and let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
3. While pork is resting, soak rice noodles in very hot water for 10 minutes, then drain. Arrange stack of large lettuce leaves attractively on large serving platter. Place carrots, cucumber, rice noodles, and cilantro leaves in small dishes and arrange on serving platter. Combine sauce ingredients and transfer sauce to small bowl or ramekin.
4. Cut pork into thin slices. If desired, lay 3 medium-sized leaves of lettuce on serving platter and arrange pork on lettuce.
5. To assemble, let each guest place a lettuce leaf on an appetizer plate. Mound a bit of rice noodles, carrot, and cucumber on lettuce; top with a few slices of pork. Drizzle with sauce and add a couple cilantro leaves. Fold over the lettuce to form a roll and enjoy.
Since I was in the cooking mood I also made Flan, but I cheated because it was made from the box. Nevertheless the flan was still delicious.
