GLUTEN FREE

LIME-CILANTRO PORK WRAPS


1 lb. pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into 1/4 to 1/2 inch strips
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons coconut oil
1 red onion, diced
1 small jalapeño pepper, minced
1/2 Cup organic chicken broth
1 medium tomato, diced
3 Tablespoons fresh lime juice
3 Tablespoons fresh cilantro, chopped
1/2 head of butter lettuce
1 package gluten free corn tortillas


1. Season pork with sea salt and pepper.
2. Heat large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. When hot, add coconut oil to pan
3. Sauté pork until lightly browned, about 4 minutes. Remove pork from pan and place in a bowl.
4. Add red onion and jalapeño pepper to hot pan,and sauté until tender.
5. Add chicken broth and tomato, and reduce heat to low. Simmer 2 minutes more, scraping pan and sides and bottom to loosen any browned bits.
6. Return pork and juices to the pan. Stir in lime juice and simmer until pork is fully cooked.
7. Top with fresh cilantro and lettuce and wrap in corn tortillas.

I like to make a sauce top it with. I also use this sauce for my fish tacos. It's so good I could drink it!
You can make this dairy free by making your own dairy free mayo. I can handle dairy in small doses so I just use store bought.

CILANTRO LIME ADOBO SAUCE

2 Cup Mayo
1/2 of a fresh lime squeezed
1/2 teaspoon lime zest
1 adobo from a can and a bit of the sauce
2 Tablespoons fresh cilantro
1/2 teaspoon cumin optional

All of the above ingredients are to taste. If you like it more spicy add more adobo, it really is personal preference. You could even use this as a dressing on a salad and we have also used it in place of sour cream on nachos. YUMMY!! You will see this sauce again pared with other recipes.
