I tried these Beef Tacos al Pastor the other day, and they turned out incredible—so full of flavor and easy to make. The beef is marinated in a blend of spices and pineapple juice, giving it that perfect balance of sweet and savory. Here’s how to make them:

Ingredients:​

  • 1 lb beef (thinly sliced)
  • 1/2 cup pineapple juice
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 1/2 tsp ground oregano
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 small onion (diced)
  • 1/2 cup pineapple chunks
  • Corn tortillas
  • Fresh cilantro and lime wedges for serving

Instructions:​

  1. Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, mix the pineapple juice, apple cider vinegar, cumin, paprika, oregano, garlic powder, onion powder, cloves, salt, and pepper. Add the thinly sliced beef and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or up to 4 hours for more flavor).
  2. Cook the Beef: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and cook until browned and fully cooked, about 5-7 minutes.
  3. Add the Pineapple and Onion: Toss in the diced onion and pineapple chunks, cooking for another 2-3 minutes until the onions are soft and the pineapple is slightly caramelized.
  4. Assemble the Tacos: Warm the corn tortillas in a skillet or microwave, then fill them with the beef mixture. Top with fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime.
