Korean Spicy Pork Tacos

Ingredients

• Pork shoulder (1 pound, thinly sliced)
• Soy sauce (1/4 cup)
• Gochujang (Korean chili paste) (2 tablespoons)
• Garlic (3 cloves, minced)
• Ginger (1 tablespoon, grated)
• Brown sugar (1 tablespoon)
• Rice vinegar (1 tablespoon)
• Vegetable oil (2 tablespoons)
• Corn tortillas (8 small)
• Kimchi (1 cup, chopped)
• Green onions (2, sliced)
• Cilantro (1/4 cup, chopped)
• Lime wedges (for serving)

Instructions

1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, gochujang, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, and rice vinegar to create a flavorful marinade.
2. Add the sliced pork shoulder to the marinade, ensuring that each piece is well coated. Cover and let it marinate in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes, or up to 2 hours for deeper flavor.
3. Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated pork in a single layer. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pork is browned and cooked through.
4. While the pork is cooking, warm the corn tortillas in a separate skillet or wrap them in aluminum foil and place them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes.
5. To assemble the tacos, place a generous spoonful of the cooked pork on each warm tortilla.
6. Top with a hearty scoop of chopped kimchi, sliced green onions, and fresh cilantro for a burst of flavor.
7. Serve the tacos with lime wedges on the side for an extra zesty kick.
8. Enjoy your delicious Korean spicy pork tacos!
