Ingredients

• 1 pound Pork tenderloin
• 2 large Bell peppers (red, yellow, or green)
• 1 large Onion
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 2 tablespoons Lime juice
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Chili powder
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 medium Avocado
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro (optional)
• 8 large Lettuce leaves

Directions

Step 1

Slice the pork tenderloin into thin strips and set aside.

Step 2

Core and slice the bell peppers into thin strips, and slice the onion into thin rings.

Step 3

In a large bowl, combine olive oil, lime juice, garlic powder, chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to form a marinade.

Step 4

Add the sliced pork to the marinade, tossing to coat thoroughly. Let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.

Step 5

Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated pork strips and cook for about 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally until the pork is cooked through.

Step 6

Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers and onion. Sauté for 5-7 minutes until they are tender-crisp.

Step 7

While the veggies are cooking, slice the avocado and chop the cilantro if using.

Step 8

To assemble the fajitas, take a lettuce leaf as the base, add a few slices of cooked pork, and top with sautéed peppers and onion. Add avocado slices and a sprinkle of cilantro.

Step 9

Serve immediately, allowing each person to build their own fajitas with additional lime juice if desired.
