Ground Pork Tacos

Prepare the Ingredients: You will need ground pork, onions, bell peppers, avocado oil, and the spices. Make sure to have your taco wraps and desired toppings ready as well.

Heat the Pan: In a large frying pan, add a generous drizzle of avocado oil. Heat the pan over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering. This will help to ensure that the pork cooks evenly and develops a nice sear.

Cook the Pork and Vegetables: Once the oil is hot, add the ground pork to the pan. Immediately follow with the chopped onions and bell peppers. As the pork begins to cook, use a spatula or wooden spoon to break up any large clumps of meat. This step is important to ensure that the pork cooks evenly and that the flavours meld with the vegetables.

Season the Mixture: After the pork has started to brown, add in your spices, garlic powder, cumin, paprika, and chili powder, but feel free to adjust based on your taste preferences. Stir the mixture well to ensure that the spices are evenly distributed throughout the meat and vegetables.

Simmer and Cook: Allow the mixture to cook for approximately 20 minutes, stirring occasionally. This will help the flavours develop and the vegetables soften. As the mixture cooks, taste it periodically and season with salt and pepper according to your preference. Adjusting the seasoning at this stage is crucial for achieving the desired flavour profile.

Assemble the Tacos: Once the pork and vegetable mixture is fully cooked and flavourful, it’s time to assemble your tacos. Take your taco wraps and place a generous portion of the cooked meat mixture in the center of each wrap.

Serve and Enjoy: Once assembled, serve the tacos immediately while they are warm. Enjoy the combination of flavours and textures in each bite, and savour the satisfaction of a delicious homemade meal.
