A different way to serve pork that's easy and tasty. Preparation time does not include 3 to 4 hour marinading time. This is from some forgotten magazine clipping from 1998. Ingredients:
1 1/4 lbs pork tenderloin |
1 cup salsa |
1/2 cup lime juice |
1/2 cup beer |
1 teaspoon garlic, minced |
1 tablespoon cilantro, finely snipped |
1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin |
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes |
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper |
12 flour tortillas |
1 1/2 cups quick-cooking rice |
nonstick cooking spray |
2 avocados |
3 tablespoons lemon juice |
3 tablespoons salsa |
Directions:
1. Partially freeze pork; thinly slice across grain into bite sized strips. Place pork in a plastic bag set into a bowl.
2. Combine salsa, lime juice, beer, garlic, cilantro, cumin, red pepper and black pepper. Pour over pork; seal bag. Marinate in refrigerator for 3 to 4 hours.
3. Prepare Easy Chunky Guacamole: Halve, seed, peel and cube 2 avocados. Combine avocados, lemon juice and salsa in a bowl. Cover and chill. (can be kept up to 24 hours in fridge).
4. Wrap tortillas in foil. Heat in a 350°F oven for ten minutes to soften.
5. Drain pork and set aside, reserving marinade.
6. Add enough water to marinade to equal 1 1/2 cups. Place in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Add rice. Remove from heat and let stand, covered, for 5 minutes.
7. Meanwhile, spray a skillet with nonstick coating; heat over medium heat. Add half of the pork. Stir-fry 4 minutes or until no longer pink. Remove from skillet using a slotted spoon; drain liquid if necessary. Repeat with remaining pork.
8. Spread pork and Easy Chunky Guacamole on tortillas. Roll up and serve with rice.
