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 a vibrant squeeze of lime.
INGREDIENTS
5.5 oz pork shoulder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 tsp dried oregano
0.5 tsp ground cumin
1 clove garlic
0.25 cup orange juice
2 medium corn tortillas
2 tbsp white onion
1 tbsp fresh cilantro
1 wedge lime
PREPARATION
Rub the pork shoulder evenly with the sea salt, black pepper, dried oregano, and ground cumin.
Place the seasoned pork into a slow cooker along with the minced garlic and orange juice.
Cover and cook on low for 8 hours or 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.
Spread the shredded pork onto a baking sheet and broil for 3 to 5 minutes until the edges become golden and crispy.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet over medium heat for 30 seconds per side until pliable.
Divide the crispy pork between the tortillas and top with finely diced white onion and fresh cilantro.
Serve immediately with a fresh lime wedge for squeezing over the top.
