Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Season pork slices with chili powder, salt, and pepper on both sides.

  2. Step 2

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high until shimmering, about 90 seconds.

  3. Step 3

    Add pork in a single layer and sear 2–3 minutes per side without stirring until edges crisp. Work in batches if needed.

  4. Step 4

    Push pork to the side of the skillet, add pineapple chunks, and sear until caramelized and golden, about 2 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Warm tortillas in the skillet 15 seconds per side until soft and lightly charred.

  6. Step 6

    Fill each tortilla with pork, pineapple, pico de gallo, and a dollop of guacamole. Serve with lime wedges.
