Ground Pork 'Carnitas'
In a heavy bottom pot, heat oil and sauté onion and poblanos until just tender. Add pork and cook, breaking up into small pieces with a spoon, until cooked through.
Add seasoning and mix well. If seasoning and pork caramelizes on pan, deglaze with a little water and mix well. Hold hot for service or refrigerate for later use.
Service
Heat a small sauté pan to medium high. For each order heat 1 1/2 teaspoons oil. Cut a corn tortilla in half and fry to golden brown. Turn the tortilla halves and sprinkle with 1/4 tsp seasoning. Cook until golden brown and almost crisp. Plate both halves together and hold warm.
Add 1 1/2 teaspoons oil to pan and fry 2 eggs as ordered.
Spread each tortilla half with 2 tablespoons refried beans and top each with 3 ounces cooked pork. Drizzle with 1 1/2 teaspoons Cholula. Top with eggs and drizzle with an additional 1 1/2 teaspoons Cholula. Garnish with 2 tablespoons tomatoes, 1 tablespoon cilantro and 1 tablespoon cotija. Plate with 3 slices of avocado and a lime wedge. Serve hot.
Chef's Tip!
The ground pork carnitas can be replaced with the pulled pork shoulder in the Smoky Chipotle Carnitas recipe, ground beef or ground turkey.
