INGREDIENTS
150g Pork Shoulder
60ml Fresh Orange Juice
1 Tbsp Fresh Lime Juice
2 Garlic Cloves
1 tsp Ground Cumin
1 tsp Chili Powder
1/2 cup Low-Sodium Black Beans (drained)
1 cup Shredded Green Cabbage
1/4 medium Red Onion
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 Tbsp Fresh Cilantro
PREPARATION
In a bowl, combine orange juice, lime juice, minced garlic, ground cumin, and chili powder to create the citrus-garlic marinade.
Cut the pork shoulder into bite-sized pieces and toss in the marinade. Let it sit for at least 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the marinated pork pieces until they are browned on all sides and cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.
While the pork is cooking, prepare the crunchy slaw by tossing the shredded cabbage and thinly sliced red onion with olive oil and a pinch of salt. Stir in chopped cilantro.
In a bowl, assemble the carnitas bowl by layering the warm pork, a half cup of drained low-sodium black beans, and a generous serving of crunchy slaw.
Finish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime if desired, then serve immediately.
