Preparation

Step 1

To make the salsa, combine the papaya, bell pepper, scallion, cilantro, honey, lime juice, crushed red pepper, and salt in a small bowl; set aside.


Line the broiler rack with foil; preheat the broiler.


Combine the apricot preserves, hoisin sauce, garlic, and ginger in another bowl. Add the pork; toss to coat. Thread the pork onto two 8-inch metal skewers. Place the skewers on the broiler rack. Broil 4 inches from the heat, turning occasionally, until the pork is browned, about 3 minutes on each side.


Place the lettuce on a work surface. Top each leaf with one-fourth of the pork and one-fourth of the salsa. Fold the two long sides of the lettuce over the filling. Starting from a short end, roll up the lettuce to enclose the filling. Repeat with the remaining lettuce, pork, and salsa, making a total of 4 rolls. Yields 2 rolls per serving.
