Al Pastor Street Tacos are a flavorful staple of Mexican cuisine, featuring marinated pork cooked on a vertical spit, inspired by Middle Eastern shawarma techniques. The pork is seasoned with a blend of spices, pineapple juice, and chilies, creating a savory-sweet profile. Tucked into small corn tortillas, these tacos are traditionally garnished with fresh pineapple, cilantro, diced onions, and a squeeze of lime. Nutritionally, Al Pastor tacos offer a good source of protein from the pork, while the fresh toppings provide essential vitamins and minerals. Corn tortillas are naturally gluten-free and lower in calories compared to flour alternatives. However, the dish can be high in fat and sodium depending on the cut of meat and marinade ingredients. For a balanced meal, pair these tacos with a side of fresh vegetables or a light, refreshing salad.
