Don't have cash or space for another piece of equipment? Make your own panini press with two heavy pans on the stovetop: Press the smaller "top" inside the larger "bottom" with your food in between. Help weigh it down with a few cans or a brick.

Directions:

  1. Preheat the oven to 450°. Season the pork with salt and pepper. Heat a heavy, medium ovenproof skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil, then the pork; cook, turning, until browned, about 2 minutes. Transfer to the oven and roast until a thermometer registers 150°, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes; cut into 1/2-inch cubes.

  2. In a small skillet, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until softened, about 8 minutes.

  3. In a large bowl, whisk together the hoisin sauce, honey, sesame oil and soy sauce. Stir in the onion and the pork and its juices.

  4. Preheat a panini press. Divide the pork mixture evenly among the roll bottoms, then cover with the tops. Working in batches if necessary, grill until browned and crisp.
