Method

1

Combine pineapple, red onion, garlic, oregano, cumin, chili powder, lime juice, olive oil, and salt in a shallow dish or zip-top bag.

2

Add sliced meat to marinade, coat well, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.

3

Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Remove meat from marinade, shaking off excess, and grill in batches 2–3 minutes per side until edges are caramelized and internal temperature reaches 160°F for pork or 165°F for poultry.

4

Warm tortillas directly over grill flame or in a dry skillet for 30 seconds per side until pliable.

5

Fill each warm tortilla with grilled meat, top with diced white onion and fresh cilantro, and serve with lime wedges on the side.
