Crispy Slow-Cooked Pork Carnitas Tacos
Slow-cooked pork shoulder shredded and broiled until crispy, served in warm corn tortillas with a zesty lime crema and fresh cilantro.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz pork shoulder
0.25 cup orange juice
1 tbsp lime juice
2 cloves garlic
0.5 tsp ground cumin
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1.5 small corn tortillas
0.25 cup non-fat Greek yogurt
1 tbsp fresh cilantro
1 tbsp red onion
PREPARATION
Rub the pork shoulder with cumin, oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the pork in a slow cooker with orange juice, lime juice, and minced garlic.
Cook on low for 7-8 hours or high for 4-5 hours until the meat is tender and easily shredded.
Remove the pork and shred it with two forks, discarding any excess fat.
Spread the shredded pork on a baking sheet and broil for 3-5 minutes until the edges are golden and crispy.
Mix the Greek yogurt with a splash of lime juice to create a high-protein crema.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat.
Assemble the tacos by layering the crispy pork, diced red onion, fresh cilantro, and a dollop of lime crema.
