Shredded Pork Taquitos image

Watched Emeril Lagasse make these a couple of years ago on the Food Network and have been making them since. Recipe is as Emeril makes it but will add my 2 cents of changes I made.

Categories     Pork

Time 2h30m

Yield 48 Taquitos, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons olive oil
1 1/2 lbs pork shoulder, trimmed and cut into 2 inch cubes (I used pork tenderloin)
salt & pepper
1 cup chopped onion
2 tablespoons chopped garlic
1 cup chopped tomato, peeled and seeded (I like the plum tomatoes here, and I don't peel and seed)
4 cups beef stock
corn tortilla

Steps:

  • In a large saute pan, heat the olive oil.
  • Add the pork and season with salt and pepper.
  • Sear the pork until browned, about 2 minutes per side.
  • Add the onions and saute until softened, about 2 minutes.
  • Add the chopped garlic and tomatoes. Season with more salt and pepper.
  • Saute until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the beef stock and bring the liquid to a boil.
  • Cover and reduce to a simmer. Simmer until pork is very tender, about 2 hours. (Depending upon cut of meat).
  • To make taquitos, find the best quality corn shells you can. I quickly heat mine on an oiled pan, both sides, then lay on a paper lined plate. Add pork in a line, roll as tightly as possible. I stick a toothpick in them to hold. I then deep fry for just a few minutes. All will have to be played with on an individual basis. I know they can also be baked but haven't tried that myself.

These taquitos were a bit too greasy for my taste. I would drain the pork filling more thoroughly next time.

I love the combination of flavors in these taquitos. The pork is tender and juicy, and the crispy shells are the perfect complement.

These taquitos were easy to make and turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a different type of cheese. I used cheddar, but I think a pepper jack cheese would be better.

I love that this recipe uses shredded pork instead of ground beef. It gives the taquitos a much more complex flavor.
