Pork Carnita is a savory dish hailing from Mexico, featuring tender, slow-cooked pork that's seasoned with spices like cumin and garlic. Traditionally made from pork shoulder, it's simmered in its own fat until deliciously crisp. Served in tacos, burritos, or bowls, the rich flavor captures the essence of Mexican cuisine. While it's packed with protein, the higher fat content means it's best enjoyed in moderation. Topped with fresh herbs, onions, and vibrant salsas, Pork Carnita is a fiesta for the senses!
