Carnitas

Source: https://ohsweetbasil.com

Similar to our pulled pork, Mexican Carnitas,are somewhat of a staple ingredient to many of Mexico’s delightful dishes. It is popularly used as a tasty filling to the many delicacies being served at restaurants and street food stalls all around Mexico.

The recipe calls for slow-cooking pork over low heat, in order to lovingly coax the meat to achieve a tender, fall-off-the-bone. The cooked meat is then “pulled apart” with a fork, separating them into juicy strips which are then pan fried quickly before serving. This gives an extra dimension to the dish, adding a beautiful crunch to every mouthful you take.

Carnitas make excellent burrito and taco fillings, especially if cooked right and seasoned well.
