Slow-Cooked Pork Carnitas Tacos
Tender pork shoulder slow-cooked with citrus and warm spices, then crisped to golden perfection and served in warm corn tortillas with zesty lime.
INGREDIENTS
5.75 oz pork shoulder
0.5 tsp ground cumin
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
2 clove garlic
0.25 cup white onion
2 tbsp orange juice
0.25 tsp olive oil
1 small corn tortillas
1 tbsp fresh cilantro
2 medium radishes
0.5 medium lime
PREPARATION
Rub the pork shoulder evenly with the ground cumin, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the seasoned pork in a slow cooker along with the minced garlic, chopped white onion, and orange juice.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours until the meat is tender and shreds easily with a fork.
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks, discarding any excess large pieces of fat.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and sear the shredded pork for 3-5 minutes until the edges are crispy and golden.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for about 30 seconds per side until they are soft and pliable.
Assemble the tacos by dividing the crispy pork between the tortillas and topping with fresh cilantro, thinly sliced radishes, and a squeeze of lime juice.
