Cómo preparar Ancho Carnitas
- Combine all sauce ingredients (see below) in a blender and blend until completely smooth. If the sauce is too thin, simmer it uncovered in a small saucepan over medium heat for 5-7 minutes, or until slightly thickened.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. The oil should be shimmering but not smoking.
- Pour the ancho sauce into the hot skillet and cook for 1 minute, allowing it to slightly reduce and deepen in flavor.
- Add the shredded pork to the skillet. Stir gently to coat the pork evenly with the sauce. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until the pork is heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly and clings to the meat.
- Serve your delicious Ancho Carnitas immediately in warm tortillas with your favorite toppings like pico de gallo, rice, and shredded cheese. Enjoy!
