  • Filling

    • olive oil
    • 1 poblano pepper - cored, seeded, and finely chopped
    • 10 ounces ground pork
    • 1 tablespoon Mexican seasoning
    • 2 tablespoons chicken stock

STEPS

1

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.

2

Juice 1/4 lime into another small bowl; mix in sour cream to make the crema.

3

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.

4

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.

5

Wrap tortillas in a damp cloth and microwave for 30 seconds.

6

Divide tortillas over plates. Spread lime crema on top, then add pork mixture and salsa. Garnish with remaining cilantro.
