INGREDIENTS
6 oz Pork Shoulder
1 tsp Olive Oil
1 cup shredded Green Cabbage
1/4 cup shredded Carrot
1 tbsp Lime Juice
2 tbsp chopped Fresh Cilantro
1 tsp Cumin Powder
1 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat a heavy skillet over medium-high heat.
Season the pork shoulder with salt, pepper, cumin powder, and garlic powder.
Add olive oil to the skillet and sear the pork on all sides until a crispy, golden crust forms, about 3-4 minutes per side.
Reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the skillet, and allow the pork to cook through for an additional 10 minutes, turning once.
While the pork finishes cooking, combine shredded cabbage, shredded carrot, lime juice, and chopped cilantro in a bowl. Toss to mix and season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
Once the pork is cooked and crispy, let it rest for a few minutes before slicing or shredding.
Plate the pork carnitas alongside a generous serving of the fresh lime slaw and serve immediately.
