DIRECTIONS
- MARINADE pork tenderloin in the orange juice and zest, lime juice and zest, garlic and soy sauce. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
- HEAT oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Drain marinade from pork and set aside. Stir-fry pork for 7-8 minutes or until it is nicely browned and the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). Add pineapple and cook for 1-2 minutes. Meanwhile bring reserved marinade to a boil in a small saucepan. Simmer for 2-3 minutes. Stir into the meat mixture and season with salt and pepper.
- ASSEMBLE tacos by dividing the stir-fry mixture between the six tortillas, top with cheese, green onions and a sprinkle of red chilli flakes if using. COMBINE sour cream, cilantro, lime juice, salt and pepper and drizzle over the tacos. Garnish with a little fresh cilantro.
