Preparation

  1. 1

    In a large pot, heat a bit of oil over medium heat. Add the diced pork shoulder and cook until browned on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

    Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot, stirring frequently, and cook until the onion becomes translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 3

    Stir in the cumin, oregano, salt, and black pepper. Cook for another minute until the spices are fragrant.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Pour in the chicken broth and bring the mixture to a boil.
