Taco Ingredients

Method

Preparation Steps

1

Marinate the Pork

In a large bowl, combine the minced garlic, oregano, cumin, paprika, chili powder, vinegar, salt, and pepper. Mix well to form a marinade. Cut the pork shoulder into small chunks and add to the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

2

Cook the Pork

Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the pork from the marinade and grill or cook in a skillet until fully cooked, about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally. Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly.

3

Prepare the Tacos

Warm the corn tortillas on the grill or in a skillet. Place the sliced pork on each tortilla, top with diced pineapple, chopped cilantro, and finely chopped onion.

4

Serve

Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the top.
