Pork Al Pastor is a delicious Mexican dish made from marinated pork, typically cooked on a vertical spit, resembling shawarma. This savory meat is infused with a blend of spices and ingredients like achiote, pineapple, and lime, delivering a perfect balance of sweet and tangy flavors. Originating from Lebanese immigrants in Mexico, it combines traditional Mexican cuisine with Middle Eastern influences. While the pork provides protein, it's important to enjoy it in moderation, especially since the marination can add sugars. Served in tacos, it’s a vibrant and flavorful dish that's hard to resist!
