Slow-Cooked Pork Carnitas Tacos
Tender pork shoulder slow-cooked with citrus and spices until succulent, then crisped and tucked into warm corn tortillas with zesty pickled onions.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Pork shoulder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.5 tsp Ground cumin
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
1 tbsp Lime juice
2 tbsp Orange juice
1 clove Garlic
2 medium Corn tortillas
0.5 cup Cooked black beans
2 tbsp Pickled red onion
1 tbsp Fresh cilantro
0 tsp Avocado oil
PREPARATION
Season the pork shoulder evenly with sea salt, black pepper, ground cumin, and dried oregano.
Place the seasoned pork in a slow cooker and pour over the lime juice and orange juice, then add the minced garlic.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours until the meat is tender enough to shred easily with a fork.
Remove the pork from the slow cooker, shred it completely, and discard any large pieces of rendered fat.
Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add the shredded pork and sear for 3-5 minutes until the edges are golden and crispy.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side until soft and pliable.
Assemble the tacos by dividing the crispy pork and warm black beans between the tortillas.
Garnish each taco with pickled red onions and fresh cilantro before serving.
