Slow-Cooked Pork Carnitas Tacos
Pork shoulder slow-cooked with citrus and warm spices until it pulls apart easily, served in toasted corn tortillas with crisp red onion and fresh cilantro.
INGREDIENTS
7.5 oz Pork shoulder
2 tbsp 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
2 small Corn tortillas
2 tbsp Red onion
1 tbsp Fresh cilantro
PREPARATION
Season the pork shoulder evenly with the ground cumin, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the seasoned pork into a slow cooker and pour in the orange juice, lime juice, and minced garlic.
Cover and cook on low for 7-8 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, shred it with two forks, and optionally sear it in a hot pan for 2-3 minutes to achieve crispy edges.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat until they are pliable and slightly toasted.
Divide the shredded pork among the tortillas and top with the diced red onion and chopped fresh cilantro.
