Mexican Carnitas Recipe

Recipe By Taste Of Home

Ever hear of carnitas? They're easy-to-make pork crisps that are very popular in Mexico. The secret to this recipe is the quick frying. Be sure the meat is well drained before it's placed in oil, though, or it will splatter and pop. Patricia Collins, Imbler, Oregon.
