Delicious Pork Tacos with Blueberry Balsamic Sauce
These tacos feature marinated pork cooked to perfection and topped with fresh ingredients like avocado, cilantro, and lime. The recipe takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves 4 people.
Ingredients
- 1 pound pork tenderloin, trimmed
- 1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
- 1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 small corn or flour tortillas
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
- Lime wedges for serving
Instructions
- Prepare the Marinade: In a blender, combine blueberries, balsamic vinegar, honey, garlic, salt, and pepper. Blend until smooth.
- Marinate the Pork: Place the pork tenderloin in a resealable bag and pour the blueberry balsamic marinade over it. Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours for more flavor.
- Cook the Pork: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Remove the pork from the marinade and discard the marinade. Cook the pork for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). Let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
- Assemble the Tacos: Warm the tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave. Slice the cooked pork and distribute it evenly among the tortillas. Top with avocado slices, chopped cilantro, and a squeeze of lime juice.
- Serve: Enjoy the tacos immediately, garnished with additional blueberries or lime wedges if desired.
