Slow-Cooked Pork Carnitas Tacos
Tender shredded pork loin slow-cooked in citrus, served in toasted corn tortillas with creamy avocado and a vibrant salsa verde.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Pork loin
0.5 tsp Ground cumin
0.5 tsp Chili powder
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 cup Fresh orange juice
1 tbsp Fresh lime juice
2 medium Corn tortillas
0.25 whole Avocado
2 tbsp Red onion
1 tbsp Fresh cilantro
2 tbsp Salsa verde
PREPARATION
Rub the pork loin with ground cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
Place the seasoned pork in a slow cooker and pour in the fresh orange juice and lime juice.
Cover and cook on low for 6 to 8 hours until the meat is tender and easily shredded with a fork.
Remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks, discarding any excess liquid if desired.
For extra flavor and texture, quickly sear the shredded pork in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat until the edges are golden and crispy.
Warm the corn tortillas in a dry pan over medium heat for 30 seconds per side until they are soft and pliable.
Divide the shredded pork between the warm tortillas and top with sliced avocado, diced red onion, fresh cilantro, and salsa verde.
