Pork Filling

Method

Pork Filling Preparation

  1. 1

    Sauté the Onions and Garlic

    In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and sauté for about 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pork

    Add the ground pork to the skillet. Break it apart with a wooden spoon and cook until browned and fully cooked through, about 6-8 minutes.

  3. 3

    Season the Meat

    Stir in the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes to allow the spices to meld with the meat.

Taco Assembly

  1. 4

    Warm the Tortillas

    In a separate skillet or on a grill, warm the corn tortillas for about 30 seconds on each side until pliable.

  2. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    Place a generous amount of the pork filling on each warmed tortilla. Top with diced tomatoes, sliced avocado, and chopped cilantro.

  3. 6

    Serve

    Serve the tacos with lime wedges and a dollop of sour cream on the side.
