I made up these tacos last night, then posted the final product on instagram. I was amazed how many people wanted my recipe! So I immediately typed it up and emailed away.. I hope you guys love them as much as [we] did last night. I will be making these again very soon, perhaps next week!
Pork Pineapple Tacos
Pork:
4 large cut bone- out pork chops – you can probably use an
cut you want! I love Whole Foods chops, they are really lean and thick cut
Cinnamon – I used Vietnamese
Coat both sides pork with cinnamon and place in crockpot
Sauce for Pork:
2 large handfuls of cilantro
4 garlic gloves
½ cup apple cider vinegar
1 serrano pepper or jalapeno
4 tablespoons of coconut oil (melted)
1 ½ tablespoon of raw honey
1 lime squeezed
*Chicken Broth – After all above ingredients are combined
Combine all ingredients in a food processor (not broth). I
added a little less than 2 cups of chicken broth to the mixture after I
processed. Pour over pork
I cooked on high for 3 hrs then pulled it all apart and
sprinkled a little more cinnamon over it, mixed and let sit on warm as I
prepared everything else. You could prob cook on low for 6 hours.. maybe more
Salsa:
¼ Pineapple (add more id it doesn’t look like enough)
½ Red Pepper
¼ Red Onion
Dice Pineapple and finely chop onion + pepper. Toss together
and refrigerate for about an hour
Cilantro Crema:
1 individual container of 0% Greek Yogurt
Large handful of cilantro
3 cloves of garlic
Pinch of red pepper flakes (optional)
Pinch of cayenne pepper (optional)
Half a lime (squeezed)
Salt + Pepper
Combine all ingredients in a food processor or blender then
refrigerate. If you like spicy add extra red pepper flakes and cayenne!
I served this with collard green wraps (large leaves cut in
half). I’m sure lettuce is good too! Or normal tortillas, of course!
Enjoy!
