INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Pork Shoulder
2 Corn Tortillas
1/2 cup shredded Red Cabbage
1/4 medium Red Onion, diced
1/4 Avocado
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
1 Lime wedge
1 teaspoon Ground Cumin
1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
Salt and Pepper
PREPARATION
Season the 7 ounces of pork shoulder with salt, pepper, ground cumin, and dried oregano.
Heat a teaspoon of olive oil in a skillet on medium-high heat and sear the pork on all sides until browned.
Transfer the seared pork to a slow cooker, cover, and cook on low for 6-8 hours until tender and easily shredded.
Once cooked, shred the pork using two forks and optionally crisp it under a broiler for a few minutes for extra texture.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave.
Assemble the tacos by placing a generous portion of shredded pork on each tortilla, then topping with shredded red cabbage, diced red onion, and slices of avocado.
Squeeze a lime wedge over the finished taco and serve immediately.
