Fabulous Pork Fajitas

Marinated in lime juice, orange juice, garlic, cumin and oregano, the sliced pork has a bright citrus note to it with the earthy flavors of oregano and cumin rounding out the flavor profile. Use any combination of sweet peppers you like. I just happened to have both red and green on hand. I also snuck in half of a jalapeno because it was sitting lonely in the fridge. I use a large yellow onion instead of a sweet onion because I enjoy the sharper taste. Anyway you like it, these are so tasty, go together quickly and really economical. I use boneless pork loin chops that I froze for 30 minutes which made slicing them a breeze.

Ingredients

Instructions

  • In a medium size bowl, whisk together the garlic, cumin, oregano, salt, orange juice, lime juice and Tobasco Sauce.
  • Thinly slice the pork, onions and peppers. Add the sliced pork to the marinade and let marinate 15 minutes to one hour. The longer you marinate, the heartier the flavor.
  • Heat 1 Tbsp canola oil in a 10 inch skillet until very hot.
  • Add the onions, peppers and the pork with the marinade to the skillet. Cook and stir over medium high heat for 7-8 minutes until the pork is cooked through and the vegetables are just tender crisp.
  • Heat the flour tortillas as per the package instructions. Spoon the fajita pork, onions and peppers on to the center of each tortilla. Top with sour cream and cheese if you like, fold over and enjoy!
  • Adding a side of nachos with homemade Pico de Gallo is never a bad thing!
