Prep Time: 20 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 35 minutes
Servings: Makes about 8 sliders
Instructions:
1. Begin by heating a pan on medium heat. Drizzle with a good amount of cooking oil to prepare for cooking the Al Pastor pork.
2. Add the finely chopped Al Pastor pork to the pan. Cook for about 10-15 minutes or until the pork is fully cooked. Stir occasionally to ensure even browning.
3. In the meantime, grab your brioche buns and slice them through the middle. Lightly spray with cooking spray and toast in a separate pan until golden brown. Set aside.
4. In a small bowl, combine the finely chopped cabbage, onion, cilantro, and pineapple. This will be your refreshing taco-inspired topping for the sliders.
5. To make the avocado sauce, blend one ripe avocado with Mexican-style crema until smooth. Add salt to taste.
6. Time to assemble the sliders. Place a generous amount of the cooked Al Pastor pork on the bottom half of each bun.
7. Add the pineapple-cabbage topping over the pork.
8. Sprinkle with crumbled cotija cheese and pickled onions if desired.
9. Drizzle with Views Mexican Chili Oil for an extra kick.
10. Top with a dollop of the creamy avocado sauce.
11. Place the other half of the brioche bun on top, and you've got yourself a fiesta-worthy slider.
Cooking Tips:
- Freeze extra Al Pastor pork in small portions for quick and easy future meals.
- If you cannot find Mexican crema, sour cream mixed with a little lime juice can be a good substitute.
