Pork Soft Tacos Recipes

PULLED PORK SOFT TACOS

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Place two tortillas in the skillet and cook until warm and softened, about 30 seconds per side. Fill the tortillas with about 1 1/2 ounces of the pork, 1/4 cup of the lettuce, and 4 teaspoons of the salsa.
• Repeat with the remaining tortillas and serve. If you prefer to heat all of the tortillas at once, microwave them on high until warm and softened, 1 to 2 minutes.

SIZZLING PORK TACOS

Steps:

• Season the pork generously with salt and pepper. Add the garlic, chile powder and cumin, and mix well, massaging the seasoning into the meat with fingers. Let the meat marinate for at least an hour, or refrigerate overnight.
• Heat the oil in a wide cast iron skillet over medium heat. When the oil looks wavy, add the meat and let it sizzle, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes. Turn off the heat and keep meat warm.
• Heat the tortillas on an ungreased hot griddle or cast iron pan. Turn them once or twice until hot and slightly puffed. As they come off the griddle, stack them on a cloth napkin to steam, with another napkin on top.
• To assemble the tacos, stack 2 hot tortillas on a plate. Spoon on a little sizzled pork, then top with a spoonful of tomatillo salsa and another of salsa cruda. Garnish with radishes and cilantro sprigs. Serve and eat immediately.

PORK SOFT TACOS

• Add the mushrooms and onion. Cook until tender, about 6 minutes, transfer to a bowl.
• Sprinkle the pork with salt and add to the skillet; sprinkle with cumin seeds.
• Cook over high heat, stirring until the pork is browned, about 3 minutes. Stir in the salsa and mushroom mixture. Cook until heated through, about 2 minutes.
• Transfer to a bowl and wipe the skillet clean with a paper towel.
• Spray the skillet with nonstick spray and set over medium heat.
• Cook tortillas, one at a time, just until golden on the bottom, about 1 ½ minutes. Place the tortillas, toasted side up on a work surface.
• Spread the pork mixture ( about 2/3 cup) over half of each tortilla and sprinkle with one third cheese.
• Fold the unfilled tortilla half over the filling.
• Spray the skillet with the nonstick spray and set over medium heat.
• Add the tacos to the skillet and cook, turning once with a large spatula, until golden, about 1 minute on each side.

MEXICAN-STYLE PORK TACOS (TACOS AL PASTOR) RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Slice the pork shoulder into about 1-centimeter (¼ in) slices, then transfer to a large dish or bowl. In a medium bowl, combine the achiote paste, chili powder, garlic powder, oregano, cumin, salt, pepper, vinegar, and pineapple juice, mashing and stirring until smooth with no lumps. Pour the marinade over the pork slices, then toss to make sure they are coated on all sides. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours or up to 3 days.
• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
• Place a slice or two of the pineapple on the baking sheet. Take a wooden skewer and push it directly in the middle of the pineapple. Remove the pork from the fridge and push the slices through the skewer, layering one after the other until there is a 1-inch (2 ½ cm) gap at the top. Push another pineapple slice on top.
• Bake for about 1½ hours, until the pork is slightly charred on the outside and deep red. Rest the meat for about 10 minutes, then carve off thin slices of pork and roasted pineapple.
• To assemble, place some pork on the tortillas, followed by a few pieces of pineapple, a sprinkling of onion, a pinch of cilantro, and a spoonful of salsa, and some diced avocado. Serve with lime wedges.
• Enjoy!
