Recipe: Pork Fajitas (using pork tenderloin)

PORK FAJITAS

1 tablespoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon oregano
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1 pound pork tenderloin, cut into strips 1/2-inch wide and 2 inches long
1 small onion, sliced
FOR SERVING:
8 whole-wheat flour tortillas, about 8 inches in diameter, warmed in the microwave
1/2 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
4 medium tomatoes, diced
4 cups shredded lettuce
1 cup salsa

Prepare a hot fire in a charcoal grill or heat a gas grill or broiler to medium high or 400 degrees F.

In a small bowl, stir together the chili powder, oregano, paprika, coriander and garlic powder. Dredge the pork pieces in the seasonings, coating completely.

Place the pork strips and onion in a cast-iron pan or grill basket. Grill or broil at medium-high heat, turning several times, until browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.

TO SERVE:
Spread an equal amount of pork strips and onions on each tortilla. Top each with 1 tablespoon cheese, about 2 tablespoons tomatoes, 1/2 cup shredded lettuce and 2 tablespoons salsa. Fold in both sides of each tortilla up over the filling, then roll to close. Serve immediately.

Makes 4 servings.
