Honey & Spice Pork Tacos

Honey & Spice Pork Tacos

1 lb boneless pork chops cut into strips
1-2 tbsp honey
1-2 tbsp olive oil
1-2 tsp lemon juice
1-2 tsp soy sauce
1 tsp ground chipotle pepper
1/2 tsp ground crushed red pepper
6 small corn tortillas, warmed
Garnish suggestions: queso fresco, diced avocado, tomatillo salsa

1. To make the marinade, combine honey, olive oil, lemon juice, soy sauce, chipotle pepper and crushed red pepper in a medium bowl and whisk.  Add sliced pork and let sit for 15 minutes. 

2. Heat skillet over high heat.  Add pork and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side. 

3. Fill up your tortillas and eat! 

Notes: If you don't warm corn tortillas up enough, they'll crumble when you try to roll them up.  I've found it best to put them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 30-45 seconds.  If you don't mind warming them one at a time, a skillet also works, about 15 seconds  per side on medium heat.  This recipe will feed 2-3 adults.
