Step 1
Stir sour cream, chipotle, and lime juice in a small bowl until smooth. Set the crema aside.
Step 2
Heat oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 2 minutes.
Step 3
Working with one tortilla at a time, carefully place it in the hot oil and immediately fold it in half with a spoon or tongs to form a shell.
Step 4
Hold the fold for 30 seconds until the top edge is golden, then flip and fry the other side 20 seconds. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate.
Step 5
Warm the pulled pork in a small pan over medium heat, stirring, for 2–3 minutes until heated through.
Step 6
Fill each crispy shell with warm pork and top with chipotle crema. Serve immediately.
