Ingredients

1 pound pork tenderloin, sliced into thin strips
1 cup fresh pineapple, cut into chunks
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon cumin
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste
8 small corn or flour tortillas
Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish
Lime wedges, for serving

Instructions

Marinate the Pork: In a bowl, combine olive oil, soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Add the pork strips and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Grill the Pineapple: Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the pineapple chunks and grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side until charred and caramelized. Remove from the grill and set aside.
Cook the Pork: In the same grill or pan, add the marinated pork strips and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until cooked through and slightly charred.
Warm the Tortillas: While the pork is cooking, warm the tortillas on a separate skillet or directly on the grill for about 30 seconds on each side.
Assemble the Tacos: Place the grilled pork on the warmed tortillas, top with charred pineapple, and garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve with lime wedges on the side.
