Crispy Pork Carnitas Tacos with Fresh Cabbage Slaw
Enjoy the tantalizing flavors of tender, crispy pork carnitas paired with a refreshing red cabbage slaw, all wrapped in a warm, soft corn tortilla. This vibrant dish is accented with a burst of lime and avocado cream, balancing savory richness with a zesty finish.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz Pork Shoulder
1 small Corn Tortilla
1/2 cup shredded Red Cabbage
1/4 Avocado
1 tbsp Lime Juice
1 tsp Cumin
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper (to taste)
2 tbsp Fresh Cilantro (chopped)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 375°F. Pat the pork shoulder dry with paper towels.
Season the pork generously with cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper, ensuring all sides are coated.
Place the seasoned pork on a baking tray and roast in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes until the edges become crispy. For extra crispiness, broil the pork for an additional 2-3 minutes, watching closely.
Remove the pork from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes. Then, slice or shred the pork into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, toss the shredded red cabbage with lime juice and chopped cilantro. Season with a pinch of salt if desired.
Warm the corn tortilla in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side, or wrap in a damp paper towel and microwave for 20 seconds.
Assemble the taco by layering the crispy pork onto the tortilla, followed by a generous serving of the fresh cabbage slaw. Top with avocado pieces.
Serve immediately and enjoy your nutrient-packed, flavorful meal!
