Today’s Delightful Creation: Spicy Mango Pork Tacos

As the warm spring weather starts to roll in, I find myself craving bright and bold flavors to match the blossoming flowers outside. Today, I’m excited to share my recipe for Spicy Mango Pork Tacos, a dish that perfectly balances sweet, spicy, and savory flavors in every bite.

For this recipe, you will need the following ingredients:

  • 450g pork shoulder, cubed
  • 1 large mango, diced
  • 1/2 red onion, chopped
  • 1 jalapeno pepper, diced
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 1 tsp cumin
  • 1 tsp coriander
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 6 corn tortillas
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • Fresh cilantro, chopped
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste

Prepare your kitchen tools:

  • knife
  • cutting board
  • skillet
  • tongs
  • citrus juicer

To start, heat a skillet over medium heat and add the cubed pork shoulder. Season with cumin, coriander, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Sear the pork until golden brown and cooked through, then remove it from the skillet and set it aside.

In the same skillet, add the diced mango, red onion, and jalapeno pepper. Sauté until the mango is caramelized and the onions are translucent. Return the pork to the skillet and stir to combine all the ingredients.

Squeeze the lime juice over the mixture and give it a final toss to incorporate the flavors. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.

Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet until slightly charred and pliable. Fill each tortilla with a generous portion of the spicy mango pork mixture. Top with sliced avocado and fresh cilantro.

As you take your first bite, you’ll experience the tender and flavorful pork complemented by the sweet mango, zesty lime, and a kick of heat from the jalapeno. These Spicy Mango Pork Tacos are a true explosion of flavors in every bite.

This recipe makes approximately 6 tacos, with each serving weighing around 200 grams. One serving of these delicious tacos is estimated to be around 350 calories.

A unique tip to enhance the flavor of these tacos is to sprinkle a bit of Tajin seasoning on top for an extra punch of citrusy and spicy flavor.

I hope you enjoy making and savoring these Spicy Mango Pork Tacos as much as I do. Feel free to customize the recipe with your favorite toppings and make it your own. Happy cooking!
