Crispy Pork Carnitas Tacos with Fresh Salsa
Savor the vibrant flavors of tender, crispy pork carnitas tucked inside warm corn tortillas, crowned with a zesty, fresh salsa and a hint of creamy avocado. This dish offers a delightful balance of textures and a burst of bright, fresh notes with every bite.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Pork Shoulder (trimmed)
2 small Corn Tortillas
1 medium Tomato, diced
1/4 Red Onion, finely chopped
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro, chopped
1 small Jalapeño, minced
1 tbsp Lime Juice
1/4 Avocado, diced
1 tsp Cumin Powder
1 tsp Dried Oregano
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Season the pork shoulder pieces with salt, pepper, cumin, and oregano.
Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork until browned on all sides. Lower the heat, cover, and let cook until tender (or pre-cook in a slow cooker until fork-tender, then finish in the skillet for crispiness).
In a bowl, combine the diced tomato, chopped red onion, minced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, and lime juice. Season lightly with salt and let the fresh salsa sit to blend flavors.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave until soft and pliable.
Assemble the tacos by placing crispy pork pieces in each tortilla, topping with the fresh salsa, and garnishing with diced avocado.
Serve immediately and enjoy the burst of savory, spicy, and tangy flavors.
