This flavorful fruit was actually the topping in a cake recipe. But I didn't want all the calories or fat from the cake-and the oranges are a good dessert all by themselves! The dash of vanilla extract brings out the fruit's sweetness. -Carol Poindexter, Norridge, Illinois

Time 40m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 1/4 pounds (1 kg) skinless, boneless pork shoulder (see Cook's Note)
1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
2/3 cup fresh lime juice (about 5 limes)
1 teaspoon finely grated orange zest
2/3 cup fresh orange juice (about 3 oranges)
4 garlic cloves, finely grated
2 3/4 teaspoons Morton kosher salt (0.63 oz/18 g)
2 teaspoons recado de todo clase* or 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Vegetable oil, for the grill
1 medium red onion (10.1 oz/287 g), quartered
8 medium radishes, thinly sliced
Sliced avocado
Cilantro leaves and tender stems
Warm tortillas de maíz*
Salsa de zanahoria (carrot salsa)*
Chiles habaneros encurtidos (charred pickled habaneros)*
Lime wedges
*recipe available in cookbook

Steps:

  • Place the pork shoulder on a parchment-lined sheet pan and freeze, uncovered, until almost completely frozen, for about 2 hours.
  • Using a very sharp knife, thinly slice the pork crosswise into 1/8-inch-thick pieces. Transfer to a large zip-top freezer bag set inside a large bowl and refrigerate until ready to marinate.
  • In a medium bowl, whisk the lime zest and juice, orange zest and juice, garlic, salt and recado de todo clase. Pour over the pork, seal the bag and squeeze the bag to coat the pork. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes and up to 90 minutes.
  • Prepare a gas grill for high heat. Use tongs and an old, clean kitchen towel to brush the grates with oil. (Alternatively, prepare a charcoal grill for high heat.)
  • Remove the pork from the marinade, shaking off any excess; brush off the garlic and zests. Grill the pork, turning once, until charred, for 1 to 2 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest for 10 minutes. Cut into 2-inch pieces.
  • Grill the onion quarters, turning them occasionally, until charred on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a cutting board. Cut crosswise into 1-inch pieces and separate the individual layers of the onion.
  • Arrange the pork on a large platter. Top with the charred onion, radish slices, avocado slices and cilantro. Serve with the warm tortillas de maíz, salsa de zanahoria, chiles habaneros encurtidos and lime wedges.

Tips for Making Marinated Oranges:

- Choose firm, ripe oranges with a deep orange color. - Use a variety of oranges, such as navel, blood, or Valencia, for a more complex flavor. - Cut the oranges into thin slices, about 1/4 inch thick. - Remove the seeds from the oranges before slicing, if desired. - Use a glass or ceramic container for marinating the oranges, as metal can react with the acid in the oranges. - Cover the oranges completely with the marinade and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or up to overnight. - Stir the oranges occasionally while marinating, to ensure that they are evenly coated in the marinade. - Use the marinated oranges in salads, desserts, or as a garnish.
