Begin by slicing the pork tenderloin into thin strips, approximately 1/4 inch thick, and season with salt and black pepper.
Cook the rice noodles according to package instructions, then drain and set aside, tossing them with a dash of sesame oil to prevent sticking.
Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves and ginger piece, then thinly slice the scallions and roughly chop the cilantro.
In a small bowl, mix together the lime juice, fish sauce, and honey to create a dressing.
Heat canola oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the garlic, ginger, and chili flakes, stirring for 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the pork slices to the pan, cooking for 5-7 minutes until browned and fully cooked through. Pour in the chicken broth and let it reduce slightly.
Add the cooked rice noodles to the pan, combining them thoroughly with the pork mixture.
Pour the lime-fish sauce dressing over the noodles and stir well to evenly coat.
Season the dish with additional salt and black pepper, as desired. Sprinkle the sliced scallions and chopped cilantro on top.
Serve the soy-free dry pork noodles immediately, garnished with extra cilantro if desired.
