Tacos Al Pastor Recipe

Tacos al Pastor Preparation

1. 1

   Marinate the Pork

   In a large bowl, combine the pork shoulder, adobo sauce, minced garlic, cumin, oregano, lime juice, salt, and pepper. Mix thoroughly and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.

2. 2

   Cook the Pork

   Preheat the grill or a skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the pork from the marinade and grill or sear it until cooked through and slightly charred, about 25-30 minutes, turning occasionally. Once cooked, let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing thinly.

3. 3

   Prepare the Pineapple and Onions

   While the pork is cooking, cut the pineapple into small pieces and finely chop the onion.

4. 4

   Warm the Tortillas

   In a dry skillet, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

5. 5

   Assemble the Tacos

   On each tortilla, place a generous amount of sliced pork, top with pineapple pieces, chopped onion, and sprinkle with cilantro.

6. 6

   Serve
