CARNE ADOVADA

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325°F. In an ovenproof skillet, heat the oil over medium-high heat and sauté the pork pieces until they have a golden sear on all sides, about 5 minutes. Add the chile sauce, cilantro, cumin, canela, and allspice and cover the pan. Transfer the covered pan to the oven and bake until the pork is tender, about 40 minutes, stirring the mixture at least twice during cooking.
• Remove from the oven and serve right away with a slotted spoon or keep warm in the pan until ready to serve.
• To serve, lay the tortillas side by side, open face and overlapping on a platter. Divide the filling equally between the tortillas and top with garnish and salsa. Grab, fold, and eat right away. Or build your own taco: lay a tortilla, open face, in one hand. Spoon on some filling, top with garnish and salsa, fold, and eat right away.
