Much like pork, today’s recipe is extremely versatile! It can be topped on some eggs for breakfast, thrown onto a salad or even hold it’s own as an entrée. It’s most commonly eaten with corn tortillas or with a plate of yellow rice (and of course, lots of cilantro and jalapeno!). That’s right—we’re making carnitas.
Carnitas are the Mexican version of pulled pork and are usually made with pork shoulder, but pork loin works just as well.
