Lime2 medium
Olive oil3 tbsp
Cumin1 tsp

Method

1

Pat pork shoulder dry with paper towels. In a bowl, whisk together minced garlic, fresh oregano, orange juice, lime juice, olive oil, cumin, salt, and black pepper.

2

Place pork chunks in a roasting pan or large container. Pour marinade over pork, turning to coat all sides. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, up to 24 hours.

3

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Arrange pork in a single layer in the roasting pan; do not drain marinade. Roast uncovered for 75–90 minutes until pork is fork-tender and internal temperature reaches 190°F (88°C).

4

Remove from oven and let pork rest in the pan for 5 minutes. Shred or pull meat into bite-sized pieces using two forks.

5

Divide cooked rice among serving bowls. Top each bowl with pulled pork and any pan juices.

6

Arrange sliced red onion and bell pepper strips around the pork. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice. Serve warm.
