Ingredients

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Heat half the oil in a large skillet over high. Once hot, toast the tortillas 30-60 seconds per side. You should be able to do 2-3 tortillas at a time in the skillet. Once done, set aside.
  2. Heat the remaining oil in the skillet. Add the carnitas and cook for 3-5 minutes without stirring. Then stir and cook 2-3 more minutes or until heated through.
  3. Lay the tortillas out flat. Place a scoop of carnitas in each one, then top with corn salsa, a dollop of guacamole, and a sprinkle of crumbled queso fresco.
