Ingredients for Pulled Pork Torta

Method

Directions for Pulled Pork Torta

1

Prepare the Pulled Pork

In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and minced garlic, sauté until translucent. Stir in chipotle peppers, cumin, salt, and black pepper.

2

Cook the Pork

Add the pork shoulder to the skillet, searing on all sides. Pour in chicken broth, cover, and let simmer on low heat for about 4 hours or until pork is tender and easily shredded.

3

Make the Avocado Crema

In a blender, combine avocado, sour cream, lime juice, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.

4

Assemble the Torta

Once the pork is cooked and shredded, cut the bolillo rolls in half. Spread avocado crema on the bottom half, add a generous amount of pulled pork, top with jalapeño slices and pickled red onions. Close the sandwich and serve.
