Crispy Slow-Cooked Pork Carnitas Tacos
Slow-cooked pork shoulder shredded and pan-seared until golden, served in warm corn tortillas with zesty pickled onions and a dollop of cool Greek yogurt.
INGREDIENTS
4.25 oz Pork shoulder
2 medium Corn tortillas
0.25 cup Non-fat Greek yogurt
0.25 cup Red onion
1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
0 tsp Olive oil
0.5 tsp Ground cumin
0.5 tsp Chili powder
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.5 whole Lime
1 tbsp Fresh cilantro
PREPARATION
Season the pork shoulder evenly with ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the seasoned pork in a slow cooker with two tablespoons of water and cook on low for 8 hours until the meat is fork-tender.
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it thoroughly using two forks, discarding any excess visible fat.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the shredded pork for 3-5 minutes until the edges are crispy and golden.
While the pork is searing, thinly slice the red onion and toss with apple cider vinegar in a small bowl to quick-pickle for at least 10 minutes.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry pan over medium heat for 30 seconds per side until soft and pliable.
Assemble the tacos by dividing the crispy pork between the tortillas, then topping with the pickled onions, a dollop of Greek yogurt, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
