Method
How to make it
Pat the carnitas dry and season well with salt, pepper, and a little of the spice mix.
Heat the vegetable oil in a heavy skillet over medium-high and griddle the carnitas until deeply colored.
Add the aromatics with the red onion and jalapeno; cook until fragrant and just tender.
Deglaze with a splash of liquid, scraping up the browned bits for extra depth.
