How to Make Lasagna Cupcakes Carnita Style
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a small saucepan, combine the carnitas and 1 cup of salsa. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, to heat through and blend flavors.
- In a separate bowl, mix 1 1/2 cups of the shredded cheese.
- Lightly spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
- Place one wonton wrapper into each cupcake cup, pressing gently to fit the bottom.
- Divide the carnita mixture evenly among the 12 wonton cups (approximately 1/4 cup per cup).
- Top each carnita layer with 1/4 of the cheese mixture.
- Place another wonton wrapper on top of the cheese layer, pressing gently to seal and create a second layer.
- Repeat steps 6-7: Add another layer of carnita mixture, followed by the remaining cheese mixture.
- Top each cupcake with 1/4 cup of the remaining salsa and a jalapeno slice.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the wonton wrappers are golden brown and the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Garnish with fresh cilantro and serve immediately with sour cream and/or avocado slices.
