Preparation
- Pound the pork cutlets until they are very thin (1/8"), being careful not to tear the meat.
- Stir the wine, garlic, siracha, bay leaves, vinegar, paprika, and salt.
- Add the pork to a shallow pan, pour the marinade over top, and submerge the meat.
- Refrigerate for 1 and 1/2 hours, tossing the meat several times.
- Heat a large skillet until hot, then add the lard.
- Fry the cutlets (reserve the marinade) quickly just until cooked through, about a minute per side, adding more lard as needed.
- Transfer the cooked meat to a plate and set aside.
- Add the onions and bell pepper to the skillet and saute until softened.
- Discard the bay leaves, then pour the reserved marinade into the pan with the onions and bell pepper, and heat for 5 minutes.
- Add the pork back into the skillet, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Slice the buns and spoon some of the sauce & onions over half of each bun, then pile with meat.

Butter ;) the wine marinades the meat and yes it does give it flavor too- so maybe add a little apple cider too.
