Instructions

Step 1
1

Wash and dry all produce. Peel and thinly slice shallots. Thinly slice jalapeños, removing core and seeds if you prefer less heat. Zest 1 lime, then quarter both limes.

Step 2
2

In a small bowl, combine shallots, a pinch of jalapeños (add more if you like spicier food), juice from 4 lime wedges, ½ tsp sugar, and a pinch of salt. Set aside, stirring occasionally, until ready to serve.

Step 3
3

In a separate small bowl, combine sour cream, ½ tsp chili powder (you’ll use the rest later), a pinch of lime zest, a squeeze of lime juice, salt, and pepper. Add water, 1 tsp at a time, until mixture reaches a drizzly consistency.

Step 4
4

Drain corn, then pat dry with a paper towel. (TIP: The drier your corn, the less likely it is to pop in the pan.) Heat a large, dry pan over medium-high heat. Add corn and cook, without stirring, until browned on bottom, about 4 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring, until charred, another 4 minutes. Remove from heat; transfer to a medium bowl.

Step 5
5

Heat 1 TBSP butter and a drizzle of oil in same pan over medium-high heat. Add pork and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in enchilada spice and remaining chili powder. Cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Stir in stock concentrates and ½ cup water. Cook until liquid has mostly absorbed, 3-4 minutes.

Step 6

Reserving veggies, pour pickling liquid into bowl with corn. Stir in a large drizzle of olive oil, ½ tsp chili powder, and a large pinch of salt and pepper. Wrap tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave until warm, about 15 seconds. Fill tortillas with pork and corn. Top with crema and as much pickled veggies as you like. Serve with any remaining lime wedges on the side.
