Slow Cooker Pork Carnitas Tacos
Slow-cooked pork tenderloin shredded and crisped to a golden brown, served in warm corn tortillas with zesty pickled onions and fresh cilantro.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Pork tenderloin
0.25 cup Orange juice
1 tbsp Lime juice
2 cloves Garlic
1 tsp Ground cumin
0.5 tsp Dried oregano
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
1 tsp Olive oil
2 small Corn tortillas
0.25 cup Red onion
1 tbsp Apple cider vinegar
2 tbsp Fresh cilantro
PREPARATION
Season the pork tenderloin evenly with the ground cumin, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper.
Place the seasoned pork into the slow cooker and pour the orange juice, lime juice, and minced garlic cloves over the top.
Cover and cook on low for 7 to 8 hours until the meat is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it thoroughly using two forks.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, then add the shredded pork and press down firmly to create a golden-brown, crispy texture.
While the pork is crisping, combine the thinly sliced red onion and apple cider vinegar in a small bowl to create quick-pickled onions.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or over an open flame until they are soft and pliable.
Divide the crispy pork between the two tortillas and garnish with the pickled onions and fresh cilantro before serving.
