Pulled Pork Carnitas
Ingredients:
3 lbs of Pork Loin
1 bay leaf
1 1/2 cup of water
To make the rub combine:
2 tbsp of chili powder
2 tsp of cumin
1 tsp of ground coriander
1/2 tsp cloves
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp oregano
Directions:
Mix all spices together except the bay leaf in a bowl. Rub down the entire pork loin with the spices and place in your slow cooker. Add the bay leaf and water and cook on low for 6-8 hours. Keep an eye on the pork just to make sure the water doesn’t absorb and it dries out. If you have to add more liquid, then do so. Your pork should pull apart easily so you can shred it.
Once you it is able to be shredded take it from the crock pot, shred and then place back into the crock pot. Stir the meat to coat with the juices.
For the Carnitas you will need:
Corn Tortillas
Black or Pinto Beans
Romain Lettuce
Diced Tomatoes
Diced Avocado
Shredded cheddar cheese
Cilantro Lime Topping
Greek yogurt
1/4 Cup Fresh Lime Juice
1/4 Cup Fresh Cilantro Chopped
1 lime cut into wedges for garnish
Combine these ingredients in a bowl for the dressing and set aside.
Add the drained beans with 1/2 of a cup of water to a pot on the stove over medium heat. Cook until heated through. Gently mash with a fork until they reach your desired consistency.
Lightly spray your corn tortillas with cooking spray and place on a foil lined baking sheet. Crisp in the oven on 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes until desired crispiness. Then assemble...
Add your fixings to the corn tortilla and voila!
Add a bit of dressing on top and enjoy!
