Crispy Slow-Cooked Pork Carnitas Tacos
Tender pork shoulder slow-cooked with citrus and spices then pan-seared for a crispy finish, served in warm tortillas with zesty lime-cabbage slaw.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Pork shoulder
0.25 cup Orange juice
1 tbsp Lime juice
0.5 tsp Cumin
0.5 tsp Oregano
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Onion powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 medium Corn tortilla
0.5 cup Cabbage
1 tbsp Greek yogurt
1 tbsp Cilantro
PREPARATION
Place the pork shoulder in a slow cooker and season thoroughly with cumin, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper.
Pour the orange juice and lime juice over the seasoned pork, then cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours until the meat is tender and shreds easily.
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks, discarding any excess liquid or visible fat.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the shredded pork, pressing it down firmly to sear until the edges become golden and crispy.
Warm the corn tortilla in a separate dry pan or over an open gas flame until it is soft and pliable.
Assemble the taco by filling the warm tortilla with the crispy pork, topped with shredded cabbage, a dollop of Greek yogurt, and fresh cilantro.
