Crispy Slow-Cooked Pork Carnitas Tacos
Tender pork shoulder slow-cooked with citrus and spices until succulent, then pan-seared for a satisfying crunch and served in warm corn tortillas.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz pork shoulder
0.13 cup orange juice
1 tbsp lime juice
2 clove garlic
0.25 medium white onion
0.5 tsp cumin
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1.5 medium corn tortillas
0.13 whole avocado
1 tbsp fresh cilantro
2 medium radishes
PREPARATION
Season the pork shoulder with sea salt, black pepper, cumin, and dried oregano.
Place the seasoned pork in a slow cooker with the white onion, minced garlic, orange juice, and lime juice.
Cook on low for 8 hours or high for 4 hours until the meat is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it, reserving a small amount of the cooking liquid.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the shredded pork, drizzling with 2 tablespoons of the reserved liquid.
Press the meat down and cook for 3-5 minutes without stirring until the bottom becomes golden and crispy.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry pan or over an open flame until pliable.
Divide the crispy carnitas between the tortillas and top with sliced avocado, fresh cilantro, and thinly sliced radishes.
