Provided by Manami

Categories     Pork

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 lbs lean boneless pork, cut into 2-inch cubes salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste (shoulder or leg)
4 garlic cloves, smashed
1/2 cup sour orange juice or 1/4 cup sweet orange juice 1/8 cup each fresh lime and lemon juice
vegetable oil or peanut oil, for frying
salt, to taste
crushed black pepper, to taste

Steps:

  • Sprinkle the meat liberally with salt and pepper. I.
  • In a mortar, crush the garlic into a paste and rub the pork with the garlic paste.
  • Place the pork in a nonreactive bowl and pour over the orange juice.
  • Cover and refrigerate 2 to 3 hours.
  • Drain the pork cubes.
  • In a large saucepan, over medium heat, heat 2 inches of oil until very hot but not smoking, then add the pork cubes, without crowding them, raise the heat to high, and brown the cubes, turning with a slotted spoon. (The pork will release some moisture, lowering the oil temperature considerably.)
  • When oil temperature rises again, lower the heat a little and cook the cubes, turning frequently, until they are a rich, golden brown, another 10 minutes.
  • Occasionally turn up the heat when necessary to crisp the cubes.
  • As the cubes are finished, transfer them to a paper-towel-lined platter to drain; keep warm in a 200ºF oven until all the cubes are fried. (Placing the chunks in oven will make them nice and crispy).
  • Serve immediately, with Moros y Cristianos (Black Beans and Rice) and Mojo Criollo (Creole Garlic Sauce).
