Breakfast Tacos Ingredients

Method

Preparation Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Mojo Braised Pork

    In a slow cooker, combine the pork shoulder and mojo marinade. Cook on low for 8 hours or until the pork is tender and shreds easily. Once done, shred the pork using two forks and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Charred Corn Pico

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the corn and char until lightly browned, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and mix in diced red onion, chopped cilantro, juice from half the lime, and salt and pepper to taste.

  3. 3

    Scramble the Eggs

    In a bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, and pepper. In a non-stick skillet, scramble the eggs over medium heat until just set. Remove from heat.

  4. 4

    Prepare Lime Crema

    In a small bowl, mix sour cream with the juice of the remaining lime and salt to taste.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Tacos

    Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet. Layer each tortilla with shredded pork, scrambled eggs, charred corn pico, a drizzle of lime crema, and top with chopped scallions.
