Authentic Carnitas at Home
Authentic Carnitas animate your home with the zesty flavor of Mexican tradition. The trick is to simmer the pork shoulder with the orange juice just right, so that the citrus infuses the carnitas with a surprising bite. A quick flick of a whisk through the juice every few minutes helps along a glaze that makes authentic Carnitas such a hit. Continue to simmer your Carnitas until the citrus gloss clings to the crispy meat. Your family will rave about the mouth-watering scent and flavor!
