About Tacos al pastor on corn tortillas

Tacos Al Pastor on corn tortillas are a classic Mexican dish rooted in Lebanese shawarma traditions, blending Middle Eastern and Mexican flavors. The star ingredient is marinated pork, seasoned with a blend of chili peppers, garlic, and pineapple for a tangy and savory taste, slow-cooked on a rotating spit. Traditionally, the tacos are served on soft corn tortillas and topped with diced onions, fresh cilantro, and a squeeze of lime. Corn tortillas are a source of whole grains and naturally gluten-free, while the fresh toppings provide vitamins and antioxidants. However, Al Pastor pork can be high in sodium and saturated fats depending on preparation methods. Overall, it's a flavorful dish that balances protein, fiber, and fresh ingredients, making it a satisfying option with moderate indulgence in mind.
