Today’s Special: Spicy Mango Pulled Pork Tacos

Hey there, foodies! Today, I’m excited to share a recipe that’s perfect for summer gatherings or just a cozy night in. These Spicy Mango Pulled Pork Tacos are a unique twist on a classic dish that will tantalize your taste buds with a burst of flavors. The combination of sweet mango, spicy jalapeños, and tender pulled pork creates a mouthwatering experience that you won’t soon forget.

To start, you’ll need the following ingredients:

  • pork shoulder (cubed) – 500g
  • mango (diced) – 1 large
  • jalapeño (deseeded and minced) – 1
  • onion (chopped) – 1
  • garlic (minced) – 3 cloves
  • chicken broth – 1 cup
  • lime juice – 2 tbsp
  • cumin – 1 tsp
  • smoked paprika – 1 tsp
  • salt and pepper – to taste
  • tortillas
  • avocado (sliced) – for serving
  • fresh cilantro – for garnish

Before we get started, grab these kitchen tools:

  • slow cooker
  • skillet
  • wooden spoon
  • knife
  • cutting board

In a skillet over medium-high heat, brown the cubed pork shoulder on all sides. Once browned, transfer the pork to a slow cooker. In the same skillet, sauté the onion, garlic, and jalapeño until softened. Add the mixture to the slow cooker, along with the diced mango, chicken broth, lime juice, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cook on low for 6-8 hours until the pork is tender and easily shredded with a fork.

Once the pork is cooked, use two forks to shred it in the slow cooker, mixing it well with the mango and spices. Warm the tortillas and fill them with the spicy mango pulled pork mixture. Top with sliced avocado and fresh cilantro.

This recipe makes approximately 6 servings, with each serving weighing around 200g. One serving of these Spicy Mango Pulled Pork Tacos contains approximately 350 calories.

A unique tip for this recipe is to add a splash of tequila to the slow cooker along with the other ingredients for an extra depth of flavor.

I hope you enjoy making and savoring these delicious Spicy Mango Pulled Pork Tacos. Feel free to customize the recipe to suit your taste preferences and make it your own. Happy cooking!
