    How To Make Pork Fajitas Bowls

    It’s quite simple!

    All we need to do is cook onion and bell peppers in oil over medium heat for about 6 minutes or until softened. Transfer to a plate and reserve.

    Then, add more oil and pan-fry seasoned Smithfield All Natural Boneless Pork Chops over medium-high heat for about 2 1/2 minutes per side, making sure no pink juices remain.

    Make sure it reaches 145 degrees F. Sprinkle on the juice from a large, juicy lime. Let chops rest for about 3-5 minutes.

    Last, cut cooked chops into strips and serve them atop rice with the cooked veggies. Sprinkle chopped herbs. If you want to, add sliced avocado, jalapeno, and lime wedges to the bowl.

    Or, the meal can be served with any tortilla of your choice, or lettuce leaves if on a keto diet.

    Equipment

    • skillet

    Ingredients

    • 4 Tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
    • 3 bell peppers (orange, yellow, and red), cut into strips
    • 1 medium red onion, cut in half and sliced
    • Salt and pepper to taste
    • 2 pounds Smithfield All Natural Boneless Pork Chops
    • 2 ounces taco seasoning mix (original) or 2 (1-oz) envelopes of taco seasoning mix

    • 2 Tablespoons fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped
    • 1 jalapeno, sliced (optional)
    • 2 avocados, sliced (optional)

    Instructions

    • Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Add 1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons of oil and cook bell pepper strips and onion for about 6-8 minutes or until softened. Season with salt and pepper and place onto a plate.
    • Add remaining oil and cook pork chops over medium-high heat for about 2 1/2 minutes per side or until lightly golden. If necessary, do in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.

      I’ve never had pork in a fajita bowl (or a regular fajita) for some reason. Beef, often. Chicken, ditto. But never pork. Great idea — gotta try this. Thanks!

      I have to agree with John, I’ve never thought to use pork for fajitas…don’t know why. Love that first photo.
