Answer 1

Hello!!

Take some beef and cut it into thin strips. Season with Goya Adobo, All purpose seasoning. I prefer either the Green or Red cap. Fry with some onion. Set aside.

Heat up some Milagro Tortillas. You can add cilantro , some lime juice to your taco, and also some salsa. ( You can make an easy salsa. Boil some Jalapeno pepers 2 depending on the heat you want, with some red or green tomatoes. Once thy are boiled and soft, mix in blender with some salt, do not over bl end, it will be to watery!! You can also add cilantro into the blender..

Finally, enjoy! Wrap a tortilla with some meat, add lime, cilantro and salsa. And you have a mexican taco!! Enjoy!

I love authentic Mexico Tacos, and my Favorite is Tacos Al Pastor. I don't think I could ever get tired of them.

I have never tried this recipe and I have never thought of making them but heres a recipe I found.

Things You’ll Need:

    * Ten pasilla chilies

    * Ten guajillo chilies

    * 1/2 garlic bulb

    * 1/4 liter white vinegar

    * 1/4 tsp. cumin powder

    * Five cloves

    * Salt

    * One can pineapple

    * 2 lbs. thinly sliced pork

    * One onion

    * Cilantro

    * One lime

    * Corn tortillas

    * Mixing bowl or casserole tray for marinating

    * Plastic wrap or aluminum foil

    * Small pot

    * Tongs

    * Skillet

Step1

Remove the stems and seeds from the pasilla and guajillo chilies, and then slice the peppers into thin vertical pieces. Add the vinegar, garlic, cloves and cumin to the chilies, and mash these ingredients into a pulp. Avoid touching this mixture with your bare hands, since it will immediately burn your skin.

Step2

Boil the mixture in a small pot until you make a soft paste. Stir constantly until you achieve a smooth, albeit slightly chunky consistency. Allow the contents to cool before you apply the mixture to the meat.

Step3

Dip each strip of pork in the marinade, using a pair of tongs to avoid contact with your skin. You will need to marinate the strips of pork for at least 24 hours in advance. Remember to stack the pork in the mixing bowl so that the marinade can coat each individual strip of meat.

Step4

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or aluminum foil or plastic wrap, and place the bowl in your refrigerator for at least 6 hours (overnight is better).

Step5

Removed the marinated meat from the refrigerator and allow it to return to room temperature, which will take around an hour.

Step6

Chop up the onions and cilantro together and place in a small bowl when you make tacos al pastor.

Step7

Fry the meat in a skillet until it is slightly crispy around the edges and the pork is fully cooked throughout. Add the pineapple slices to the meat while it cooks.

Step8

Chop the meat into small pieces once you have removed it from the skillet. Serve with the small corn tortillas, with the onion and cilantro mix on top. Slice up the limes and squeeze the juice all over the tacos al pastor just before serving.
