STEPS
Mince a few slices of onion to get 1 tablespoon. Add minced onion, tomato, kiwi, juice from 2 lime wedges, 3/4 of the cilantro, salt, and pepper to a small bowl. Mix into a salsa.
Juice 1/4 lime into another small bowl; mix in sour cream to make the crema.
Heat olive oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add sliced onion and poblano pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until softened and lightly charred, about 3–4 minutes.
Add ground pork and Mexican seasoning to the pan. Cook until pork is browned throughout, about 4–5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low and add chicken stock, tomato paste, salt, and pepper; cook and stir until everything is coated, around 1–2 minutes.
Wrap tortillas in a damp cloth and microwave for 30 seconds.
Divide tortillas over plates. Spread lime crema on top, then add pork mixture and salsa. Garnish with remaining cilantro.
