Authentic Tacos al Pastor Recipe

In a bowl, combine garlic, achiote paste, vinegar, chipotle in adobo sauce, oregano, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and pineapple juice. Mix well.

Add the sliced pork to the marinade and mix until well-coated. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best flavor.

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated pork and cook for about 8-10 minutes, or until browned and cooked through.

In a separate skillet, heat the tortillas over medium heat until warm and flexible.

Assemble the tacos by placing a spoonful of the cooked pork onto each tortilla. Top with sliced red onion, fresh cilantro, and any optional toppings you desire.

Serve the Tacos al Pastor with pineapple chunks and lime wedges on the side.
