Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking tray with parchment paper.
In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped bell peppers and carrots. Season with garlic powder, paprika, salt, and pepper. Sauté for 8–10 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized. Set aside.
Season pork loin slices with salt, pepper, and a drizzle of olive oil, then grill until fully cooked and slightly charred.
Slice open the brioche buns without cutting all the way through. Stuff each with a generous spoonful of sautéed vegetables and a slice of grilled pork.
Brush tops of buns with beaten egg and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Place on the baking tray and bake for 8–10 minutes, until the tops are golden and glossy.
Serve warm, garnished with fresh parsley.

Notes

You can prepare the filling ahead of time for quicker assembly.
Great with a side of coleslaw or pickles for added crunch.
Try swapping pork with grilled chicken or tofu for variation.
