Crispy Slow-Cooked Pork Carnitas Tacos
Slow-simmered pork shoulder shredded and crisped until golden, served in warm corn tortillas with a zesty lime-yogurt crema.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Pork shoulder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Ground cumin
0.25 tsp Dried oregano
0.13 tsp Garlic powder
2 small Corn tortillas
0.33 cup Nonfat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Fresh lime juice
2 tbsp Fresh salsa
1 tbsp Fresh cilantro
PREPARATION
Rub the pork shoulder with sea salt, black pepper, cumin, oregano, and garlic powder until evenly coated.
Place the seasoned pork in a slow cooker with two tablespoons of water and cook on low for 8 hours until tender.
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks, discarding any excess large pieces of fat.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the shredded pork in a single layer.
Press down with a spatula and cook for 3-4 minutes without stirring until the bottom is golden and crispy.
In a small bowl, whisk together the Greek yogurt and lime juice to create a zesty crema.
Warm the corn tortillas in a separate dry pan over medium heat until pliable and slightly toasted.
Assemble the tacos by filling each tortilla with crispy pork and topping with the lime crema, fresh salsa, and cilantro.
