Ingredients

  • 1 lb. pork shoulder, cubed
  • 3 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, diced
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1/4 cup tomato sauce
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1 cup cooked black beans
  • 1/2 cup diced tomatoes
  • 1/2 cup diced bell peppers
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 8-10 burrito-sized tortillas

Directions

  1. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork cubes and cook, stirring often, until lightly browned, about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the onion and garlic and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the cumin, chili powder, smoked paprika, and coriander and cook for 1 minute.
  3. Add the honey, tomato sauce, vinegar, salt, pepper, and water and stir to combine. Bring to a simmer and cook until the pork is cooked through and the sauce has thickened, about 10 minutes.
  4. Add the black beans, tomatoes, bell peppers, and cilantro and stir to combine. Cook until the vegetables are just softened, about 5 minutes.
  5. Divide the pork mixture among the tortillas and roll up. Serve warm.
