Slow-Cooked Pork Carnitas Tacos
Tender pork shoulder slow-cooked with aromatic spices and citrus, then crisped to perfection and served in warm corn tortillas with creamy avocado.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Pork shoulder
1 tsp Ground cumin
1 tsp Chili powder
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
2 cloves Garlic
0.25 cup Orange juice
1 tbsp Lime juice
2 medium Corn tortillas
0.25 whole Avocado
0.3 cup Plain Greek yogurt
2 tbsp Fresh salsa
1 tbsp Fresh cilantro
1 tbsp Red onion
PREPARATION
Rub the pork shoulder evenly with ground cumin, chili powder, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the seasoned pork into a slow cooker along with minced garlic, orange juice, and lime juice.
Cover and cook on low heat for 8 hours or until the meat is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks, discarding any large pieces of fat.
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and add the shredded pork, searing for 3-5 minutes until the edges become golden and crispy.
Warm the corn tortillas in a separate dry pan for 30 seconds per side until soft and pliable.
Assemble the tacos by filling the tortillas with the crispy pork and topping with sliced avocado, Greek yogurt, salsa, cilantro, and finely diced red onion.
