    🥘 Ingredients

    As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases through affiliate links.

    Pork tenderloin filet: I used Smithfield Marinated Pork Loin filet.

    Extra virgin olive oil

    Tortillas: you can use soft flour or corn tortillas. 

    Pickled red onions: these are easy to make in just minutes!

    Avocado

    Fresh cilantro

    Fresh limes

    Marinated pork diced and cooked in a skillet.

    🔪 Instructions

    1. Make pickled onions. Set aside.
    2. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Place pork in skillet and turn heat down to medium. Cook, stirring often, until pork is cooked through and internal temperature of meat is at 165 degrees f.
    3. Assemble street tacos by placing meet in the tortilla and top with red onions, avocado, cilantro, and lime juice.

    🥄 Equipment

    Cast iron skillet (or any large skillet): I like to use cast iron here because it cooks evenly and holds the heat.

    Chef knife

    Tongs

    Ingredients for street tacos.
    These pork street tacos have amazing flavor with just a few simple ingredients!

    🥫Storage

    Refrigerate: store leftovers in airtight containers up to 4 days.

    Freeze: Leftover pork can be stored in a freezer safe airtight container up to 3 months.

    Reheat: Warm thawed pork on the stove top over medium heat or in the microwave until warmed through. 

    📖 Variations

    • Make an Instant Pot Pork Loin and use shredded pork instead of cubed pork. Leftover carnitas, pulled pork, or chicken can be used.
    • Toss a can of drained black beans with the cooked pork.
    • Spice it up a little more and rub a tablespoon of chili powder into the pork loin before cooking.
    • If you want to used pulled pork, make this Instant Pot Pork Tenderloin recipe, the meat practically falls apart on it's own!

    • ​To quickly ripen an avocado, place it in the cold oven overnight! (yes! it really works!)

    The Last Word

    This recipe for pork street tacos is my own take how to make a quick and easy dinner that is in no way authentic but is convenient and delicious. Often times you will find that street tacos have been made by slow cooking a pork shoulder or pork butt with specific seasonings and the pork will be shredded to serve.
