Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground pork
- 2 tbsp Avocado oil
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp Chili powder
- 1 tsp Cumin
- 1 tsp Smoked paprika
- 0.5 tsp Ground cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 Red onion, diced
- 1 Lime, juiced
- 8 Butter lettuce leaves, washed
- 1 Avocado, sliced
- 2 tbsp Chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 Jalapeño, sliced thinly (optional)
- 2 tbsp Sour cream (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add the avocado oil.
Step 2
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.
Step 3
Add the ground pork to the skillet, breaking it up with a spatula as it cooks. Cook until browned, about 6-7 minutes.
Step 4
Sprinkle the chili powder, cumin, smoked paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper over the pork. Stir well to coat the meat evenly with the spices.
Step 5
Add the diced red onion to the skillet and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the onion softens.
Step 6
Squeeze in the juice of one lime and stir thoroughly. Remove the skillet from heat and let the mixture rest for a minute.
Step 7
Lay out the butter lettuce leaves on a large platter or individual plates. These will serve as the taco shells.
Step 8
Spoon the spicy pork mixture into each lettuce leaf. Top with sliced avocado, chopped cilantro, and optional jalapeño slices.
Step 9
Drizzle with sour cream, if desired, and serve immediately. Enjoy your keto-friendly tacos!
