Delicious Cilantro Lime Mango Pork Tacos

This recipe features tender pork marinated in a cilantro lime mixture, grilled to perfection, and topped with fresh mango salsa. It takes about 30 minutes to prepare and serves 4 people.

Ingredients

1 pound pork tenderloin
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Juice of 2 limes
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
Salt and pepper to taste
2 ripe mangoes, diced
1/2 red onion, finely chopped
1 jalapeño, seeded and minced (optional)
Corn or flour tortillas
Additional cilantro for garnish

Instructions

Marinate the Pork: In a bowl, combine chopped cilantro, lime juice, minced garlic, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Add the pork tenderloin and coat well. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Prepare the Mango Salsa: In another bowl, mix diced mango, red onion, jalapeño (if using), and a pinch of salt. Set aside.
Cook the Pork: Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Grill the marinated pork for about 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally, until cooked through and internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.
Warm the Tortillas: While the pork rests, warm the tortillas on the grill or in a skillet until soft and pliable.
Assemble the Tacos: Slice the grilled pork and place it on the warm tortillas. Top with mango salsa and additional cilantro if desired.
Serve: Enjoy the tacos immediately with lime wedges on the side.
