Ingredients

1.5 lbs pork loin

1/2 teas black pepper

1 T ground cumin

1 T California chile powder

1 T New Mexico chile powder

1/2 to 1 T cayenne powder (to match your taste)

1.5 teas garlic powder

3 whole cloves

1" piece whole cinnamin, preferrable Mexican

1 teas oregano

2 T fresh lime juice

1/2 c canola or soy bean oil

For serving:

12 corn tortillas

cilantro sprigs

chopped onion

chopped tomato

frsh or pickled jalapeno slices

lime slices

Directions

Butterfly the loin to a thickness of 1/4 inch. Place the meat in a small roasting pan. Add the spices, chile powders, cayenne, herbs, lime juice and oil to the meat. Mix well. Cover pan with plastic wrap and marinade for 6 to 24 hours.

Pre heat oven to 350 F. Cover the pan with tinfoil and roast for 45 minutes. Check after 40 minutes. The pork will easier flake with a fork when done. Remove and let cool slighty. Remove meat from pan and break into small pieces.

To serve quickly saute the meat until hot. Spoon into a warm corn tortilla. Add a sprinkle of onion and tomato pieces, a cilantro sprig and a squeeze of lime. Jalapenos if liked. Roll up and enjoy.

Guacamole and salsa can be served on the side.
