This Mole Pork Tacos recipe features tender pork tenderloin and an easy shortcut mole sauce that's unbelievably delicious. My family can't get enough!

📝 Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup chicken stock
  • 1/4 cup prepared mole
  • 1 chipotle pepper in adobe
  • 1/2 tab (46 g Mexican hot chocolate, roughly chopped)
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 2 pounds pork tenderloin (silver skin removed, cubed into 1" pieces)
  • 12 tortillas
  • 1 avocado (pitted, peeled, and sliced)
  • fresh cilantro
  • shredded Mexican cheese
  • 1 lime (sliced into wedges)
  • pickled red onions

👨‍🍳 Instructions

  1. 1Set broiler to high. Line a large rimmed baking sheet with heavy foil and set aside.
  2. 2In a blender or food processor, combine chicken stock, mole, chipotle pepper, Mexican hot chocolate, and salt. Blend until smooth.
  3. 3In a large bowl, toss pork with the mole mixture until evenly coated. Spread out pork on the prepared pan.
  4. 4Broil the pork for 10 minutes, turning half-way through. While the pork is in the oven, warm the tortillas in a microwave or lightly char them over a gas flame on the stovetop.
  5. 5Serve mole pork in warm tortillas, garnished with your favorite toppings, such as avocado, cilantro, and a sprinkle of Mexican cheese. I, of course, always need some freshly squeezed lime and my favorite pickled red onions!
