Step 1
Pat pork dry and season generously with salt and pepper on both sides.
Step 2
Heat oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high until it shimmers, about 90 seconds.
Step 3
Sear pork 2 minutes per side without moving—it should be golden brown but slightly pink in the center.
Step 4
Stir in mole verde and broth, then simmer 4–5 minutes until pork is cooked through and sauce coats the back of a spoon.
Step 5
Squeeze lime juice over the pork, then scatter sliced onion on top and taste for salt.
Step 6
Warm tortillas in a dry skillet 30 seconds per side, then serve alongside the pork and sauce.
