Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: For this recipe, pork shoulder or pork loin are both good choices. Pork shoulder is a more affordable cut, but it has more fat than pork loin. Pork loin is a leaner cut, but it can be more expensive.
  • Use a good quality pita bread: The pita bread is an important part of this dish, so make sure to use a fresh, high-quality pita. You can find pita bread at most grocery stores or bakeries.
  • Don't overcook the pork: Pork can easily become dry and tough if it is overcooked. Cook the pork until it is just cooked through, but still slightly pink in the center.
  • Make the garlic sauce ahead of time: The garlic sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator. This will save you time when you are assembling the pitas.

Conclusion:

These peppered pork pitas with garlic sauce are a delicious and easy-to-make meal. They are perfect for a quick lunch or dinner. The pork is tender and flavorful, the garlic sauce is creamy and tangy, and the pitas are soft and fluffy. This recipe is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
