Tender Citrus Carnitas Tacos
Slow-simmered pork shoulder infused with zesty citrus and warm spices, served in toasted corn tortillas with a cool, creamy dollop of yogurt.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Pork shoulder
0.25 cup Orange juice
1 tbsp Lime juice
0.5 tsp Cumin
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Avocado oil
2 medium Corn tortillas
2 tbsp Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Fresh cilantro
2 tbsp Red onion
PREPARATION
Pat the pork shoulder dry and cut into 1-inch cubes, then season evenly with cumin, dried oregano, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Heat the avocado oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat and sear the pork cubes until they are golden brown on all sides.
Pour in the fresh orange juice and lime juice, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25 minutes until the meat is tender and the liquid has reduced.
Remove the lid and use two forks to shred the pork directly in the pan, tossing it with the remaining juices to keep it moist.
Warm the corn tortillas in a separate dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds per side until they become soft and pliable.
Divide the shredded carnitas between the tortillas and top each with diced red onion, fresh cilantro, and a dollop of Greek yogurt.
