PORK CARNITAS

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Pour water into a Dutch oven. Add meat, onions, lime juice, orange juice and include the juiced orange halves in the Dutch oven. Sprinkle seasonings over the top of the cubed meat.
• 2. Bring the uncovered Dutch oven to a simmer over medium heat. Cover and place the Dutch oven on the lowest oven rack. Cook about 2 hours or until the meat comes apart easily with a fork.
• 3. Take the pork out of the oven. Using a slotted spoon, remove the meat and onions from the Dutch oven and place into a large baking dish or jelly roll pan. Turn on the broiler. Adjust the rack to the middle of the oven.
• 4. Remove the orange halves from the pot and discard. Place the Dutch oven with the meat juices over medium heat and reduce to about 1 cup. While the juices are reducing, pull the pork apart into bite-size pieces with two forks. Once the meat juices have reduced, pour the liquid over the meat. Gently fold meat so that it gets evenly coated with the juices.
• 5. Return the meat to the oven and broil until the edges of the meat start to crisp, about 5 minutes. Using a spatula, flip the meat over to cover in juices. Return to the broiler for another 5-7 minutes.
• 6. Remove pan from oven. Serve immediately with tortillas or put onto sandwich rolls.
