Method

Seafood Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Seafood

    In a large mixing bowl, combine shrimp and scallops. Mince the garlic and add it to the seafood mixture. Squeeze the juice of one lime over the seafood, and season with salt and pepper. Toss everything together and let it marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Chop Cilantro

    While the seafood is marinating, chop the cilantro finely and set aside for garnishing.

Pork Preparation

  1. 3

    Cook the Pork

    In a skillet over medium-high heat, add the pork tenderloin and sear it on all sides until browned, approximately 5-7 minutes. Remove from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.

  2. 4

    Prepare Chorizo Mixture

    In the same skillet, add the chorizo sausage, diced onion, and diced bell pepper. Cook until the chorizo is browned and the vegetables are soft, about 5-7 minutes. Add cumin, chili powder, salt, and black pepper, stirring well to combine.

  3. 5

    Combine Pork with Chorizo

    Slice the rested pork tenderloin into thin medallions and return it to the skillet with the chorizo mixture. Stir to combine and heat through.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate skillet, warm the corn tortillas over medium heat for about 1-2 minutes on each side until soft and pliable.

  2. 7

    Serve

    To serve, place a few slices of the pork and chorizo mixture onto a tortilla. Top with the marinated seafood, a dollop of sour cream, sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, and sprinkle with Cotija cheese. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the top before enjoying.
