Ingredients

3 tablespoons Land O Lakes® Butter with Canola Oil, melted, divided

1 small (1/2 cup) onion, chopped

3 cups cooked shredded pork carnitas meat

12 (6-inch) yellow corn tortillas

1 (8-ounce) bag (2 cups) Land O Lakes® Mexican Blend Farmstyle Cut Shredded Cheese

How to make

  1. STEP 1

    Heat oven to 425°F. Line baking sheet with parchment paper.

  2. STEP 2

    Melt 1 tablespoon Butter with Canola Oil in medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion; cook, stirring occasionally, 3-5 minutes or until onion has softened slightly. Add pork; cook 2 minutes or until heated through. Set aside.

  3. STEP 3

    Microwave remaining 2 tablespoons butter in small dish until melted. Brush one side of each tortilla with butter on cutting board.

  4. STEP 4

    Place 1 tortilla butter-side down in one corner of prepared baking sheet. Place about 2 tablespoons cheese on one-half of dry tortilla side. Top with about 1/4 cup pork. Place second tortilla butter-side down slighly overlapping first tortilla. Fill with cheese and meat. Repeat twice more for one row of four overlapping tortillas. Repeat for two more rows of four tortillas making 12 tacos total, arranging open-faced in three overlapping rows of four.

  5. STEP 5

    Bake 3 minutes or until tortillas are warm and pliable; carefully fold tortillas in half and flip over, pressing gently to seal. Bake 5 minutes; remove from oven. Top each taco with scant tablespoon cheese. Return to oven; bake 5-7 minutes or until tortillas are golden and crispy and cheese is melted. Serve with desired toppings. 

Tip #1

Heating tacos open-faced in the oven for a few minutes before folding allows the tortillas to become soft, pliable and easier to fold without breaking.
