PORK AND POBLANO TACO WITH KIWI SALSA AND LIME CREMA

Steps:

• Wash and dry all produce. Halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Mince a few slices until you have 1 TBSP minced onion. Core, seed, and finely chop poblano. Core, seed, and finely dice tomato. Peel, then finely dice kiwi. Roughly chop cilantro. Cut lime into wedges.
• Toss together minced onion, tomato, half the cilantro, kiwi, and a squeeze of lime juice in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. In a separate small bowl, stir together sour cream and a squeeze or two of lime juice. Season with salt and pepper.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add sliced onion, poblano, and half the Mexican spice. Cook, tossing occasionally, until softened and lightly charred, 3-4 minutes.
• Add pork, another drizzle of oil, and remaining Mexican spice to pan, breaking up meat into pieces. Cook until pork is browned at edges and no longer pink, 4-5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. TIP: If there's excess grease in your pan, carefully pour it out.
