INGREDIENTS
5 oz Pork Shoulder
1/4 cup Fresh Orange Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Lime Juice (divided)
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 pinch Red Chili Flakes
1 tsp Olive Oil (for pork)
1 cup Shredded Red Cabbage
1/2 cup Shredded Carrot
1 tsp Olive Oil (for slaw)
3 sprigs Fresh Cilantro
PREPARATION
In a bowl, combine the fresh orange juice, 1 tablespoon of lime juice, minced garlic, and red chili flakes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Place the pork shoulder in a slow cooker and pour the citrus marinade over it. Cook on low for 6-7 hours until the pork is tender and easy to shred.
Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred using two forks. Pat the shredded pork dry with paper towels.
Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shredded pork in a single layer and crisp up the edges for 3-4 minutes, stirring occasionally.
In a separate bowl, toss together the shredded red cabbage, shredded carrot, the remaining 1 tablespoon of lime juice, 1 teaspoon olive oil, and roughly chopped cilantro. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
Plate a serving of the crispy citrus pork and top with a generous portion of fresh cabbage slaw. Garnish with extra cilantro if desired and serve immediately.
