Step 1

Wash and dry produce. Finely dice tomatoes. Roughly chop cilantro. Zest one lime. Quarter both limes. Drain and roughly chop pulled pork into smaller pieces.

Step 2

Heat a large drizzle of cooking oil in a medium pan over medium high heat. Add pork, southwest spice, paprika, and 1/2 tsp salt. Cook, stirring, until pork is warmed through. Stir in chicken stock concentrate, pork Ramen stock concentrate, and 1 1/2 cups water. Bring to a simmer and cook until broth has thickened. Taste and season with salt and pepper if needed. Using a slotted spoon, transfer pork filling to a medium bowl, leaving broth behind. Cook until broth has reduced. Remove from heat and cover to keep warm.

Step 3

In a small bowl, combine tomatoes, cilantro, lime zest, juice from one lime, and 2 tbsp olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and set aside.

Step 4

Place tortillas on a clean work surface. Sprinkle one half of each Tortilla with mozzarella; top with pork filling. Fold tortillas in half to create tacos.

Step 5

Melt 1 tbsp butter in a large nonstick pan over medium heat. Add tacos and cook until tortillas are crisped.

Step 6

Divide broth between small serving bowls. Divide tacos between plates and serve with Pico de Gallo, remaining lime wedges, and broth for dipping.
