Slow-Cooked Pork Carnitas Tacos
Tender pork shoulder slow-cooked with citrus and aromatic spices, then crisped to perfection and served in warm corn tortillas with a vibrant crunch of radish and lime.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz pork shoulder
0.5 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp ground cumin
1 clove garlic
2 tbsp orange juice
2 small corn tortillas
2 tbsp white onion
1 tbsp fresh cilantro
0.25 whole lime
2 medium radishes
PREPARATION
Rub the pork shoulder chunks with sea salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and ground cumin.
Place the seasoned pork into a slow cooker along with the minced garlic and fresh orange juice.
Cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours until the meat is tender enough to fall apart with a fork.
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks, discarding any large pieces of excess fat.
For a crispy finish, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and sear the shredded pork for 3 to 5 minutes until the edges are golden brown.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry pan or over an open flame until pliable.
Divide the crispy pork evenly between the tortillas and top with diced white onion, chopped cilantro, and sliced radishes.
Serve immediately with a fresh lime wedge for squeezing over the top.
