Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering, about 1 minute.

  2. Step 2

    Add shredded pork, cumin, chili powder, and a pinch of salt. Stir to coat.

  3. Step 3

    Cook, stirring occasionally, until edges crisp and char, 6–8 minutes. You'll smell the spices toasting.

  4. Step 4

    Warm tortillas in a dry skillet or directly over a gas flame, 15 seconds per side.

  5. Step 5

    Fill each tortilla with crispy pork. Serve with lime wedge on the side.
