Original recipe (1X) yields 8 servings

Ground Pork Filling

1 pound ground pork

1 tablespoon soy-based liquid seasoning (such as Maggi® Jugo)

½ teaspoon chipotle powder

1 clove garlic, minced

Pineapple Salsa

1 cup diced fresh pineapple

¼ cup minced red onion

1 small jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced

2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro

½ lime, juiced

salt to taste

8 (6 inch) corn tortillas

Directions

Combine ground pork, liquid seasoning, ground chipotle powder, and garlic in a bowl. Set aside briefly for flavors to meld.

Meanwhile, make the salsa: Combine pineapple, red onion, jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and salt in a bowl. Set aside.

Preheat a large skillet over high heat. Crumble ground pork into the hot skillet. Cook and stir until pork is completely browned and edges begin to crisp, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain any excess grease. Place pork in a bowl and keep warm. Wipe out skillet.

Warm tortillas in skillet over medium-low heat, about 20 seconds per side. Divide meat mixture between tortillas and top with pineapple salsa.

Cook’s Note

Jugo Maggi seasoning is the Mexican version of regular Maggi seasoning, and can be found in the International aisle of your supermarket. It will add a deep umami flavor to ground pork. If you cannot find either, you can combine equal parts soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce.
