Instructions
Step 1
1. Prepare the jackfruit:
- Drain and rinse the jackfruit. Remove the core and seeds, then shred the jackfruit using your hands or a fork.
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and garlic and sauté until translucent.
- Add the shredded jackfruit to the skillet and season with cumin, smoked paprika, chili powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Pour in the vegetable broth and lime juice, then reduce heat to low and let simmer for 20-30 minutes, or until the jackfruit is tender and the liquid has evaporated. 2. Assemble the tacos:
- Warm the corn tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave.
- Fill each tortilla with a spoonful of the jackfruit carnitas.
- Top with sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, red onion, and a squeeze of lime juice.
- Serve the tacos with salsa on the side. 3. Optional toppings:
- Feel free to customize your tacos with additional toppings like shredded cabbage, pickled jalapeños, vegan cheese, or hot sauce. 4. Storage and reheating:
- The jackfruit carnitas can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in a skillet over medium heat until warmed through.
- Store leftover assembled tacos in the refrigerator without toppings and reheat in the oven or microwave before adding fresh toppings
