Follow The Directions

01

Step

Craft the Kiwi Salsa: Mince a few slices of the red onion (about 1 tablespoon). In a small bowl, combine the minced onion, diced Roma tomato, kiwi, the juice from 2 lime wedges, 3/4 of the chopped cilantro, salt, and pepper to taste. Gently mix to create your vibrant salsa. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

02

Step

Prepare the Lime Crema: Juice 1/4 of the lime into a separate small bowl. Whisk in the sour cream until smooth and well combined. Set aside. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

03

Step

Sauté Aromatics and Pork: Heat a generous drizzle of olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add the sliced red onion and chopped poblano pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until softened and lightly charred, approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Introduce the ground pork and Mexican seasoning. Cook, breaking up the pork with a spoon, until browned throughout, about 4 to 5 minutes. (Cook time: 10 minutes)

04

Step

Simmer in Flavor: Reduce the heat to medium-low. Add the chicken stock and tomato paste to the pork mixture. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Cook and stir until everything is evenly coated in a rich, flavorful sauce, about 1 to 2 minutes. (Cook time: 2 minutes)

05

Step

Warm Tortillas: Wrap the flour tortillas in a damp cloth. Microwave for 30 seconds to make them pliable and easy to fold. (Prep time: 1 minute)

06

Step

Assemble and Serve: Divide the warmed tortillas over plates. Spread a generous dollop of lime crema on each tortilla. Top with the flavorful pork mixture and a heaping spoonful of the kiwi salsa. Garnish with the remaining fresh cilantro. Serve immediately and savor the explosion of flavors! (Prep time: 5 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of cumin or smoked paprika to the pork mixture while cooking.
If you prefer a spicier kick, add a finely chopped jalapeño pepper to the salsa or a dash of your favorite hot sauce to the lime crema.
Feel free to substitute ground chicken or turkey for the ground pork, if desired.
Store leftover pork mixture and salsa separately in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat the pork and assemble the tacos fresh for the best flavor and texture.
