Today’s Recipe: Spicy Pineapple Pork Tacos

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a delicious and unique recipe for Spicy Pineapple Pork Tacos. With a perfect balance of sweet, spicy, and savory flavors, this dish is sure to be a hit at your next Taco Tuesday or weekend barbecue. Let’s get cooking!

Ingredients:

  • 500g pork shoulder, cubed
  • 300g fresh pineapple, diced
  • 1 medium red onion, sliced
  • 1 jalapeno, deseeded and diced
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • Handful of cilantro, chopped
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 8 small tortillas

Kitchen Tools:

  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • skillet
  • wooden spoon
  • citrus juicer

Start by heating a skillet over medium heat and adding the cubed pork shoulder. Cook until browned on all sides, then add the sliced red onion, diced pineapple, minced garlic, and jalapeno. Stir well to combine.

Season the mixture with ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Squeeze the lime juice over the pork and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes until the pork is cooked through and the flavors have melded together.

While the pork mixture is cooking, heat the tortillas in a separate skillet until warm and slightly toasted. Fill each tortilla with a generous portion of the spicy pineapple pork mixture and top with chopped cilantro.

Serve your Spicy Pineapple Pork Tacos hot, with extra lime wedges on the side for squeezing. The combination of tender pork, sweet pineapple, and spicy jalapeno is truly irresistible!

The total weight of the cooked dish is approximately 1200g. This recipe makes 4 servings, with each serving weighing around 300g. Each serving is estimated to have around 400 calories.

One unique tip for this dish is to add a sprinkle of crumbled queso fresco or cotija cheese on top of your tacos for an extra layer of flavor and creaminess.

I hope you enjoy trying out these Spicy Pineapple Pork Tacos! Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite toppings or additional heat if you like it extra spicy. Happy cooking!
