Classic Tacos Al Pastor

Step 1

Use a sharp knife to slice pork into thin slices. Place in a large mixing bowl or resealable plastic bag.

Step 2

Cut the pineapple into 2-inch wide spears. Dice approximately 1 cup of pineapple and set the rest of the spears aside.

Step 3

Add the roughly chopped onion into a blender along with 1 cup of the cubed pineapple. Add in orange juice, white vinegar, chipotle, chile powder, garlic, salt, and oregano. Puree until smooth.

Step 4

Pour marinade over pork. Refrigerate and let marinate at least 4 hours.

Step 5

Heat a skillet or grill to high heat. Working in small batches, sear each slice of pork until cooked through, 2 to 4 minutes. At the same time, grill pineapple until lightly charred. Roughly chop the cooked pork and dice cooked pineapple.

Step 6

Serve meat up hot on a warmed tortilla topped with freshly chopped cilantro, diced grilled pineapple, sliced red onion, and a lime wedge.
