Pork Tacos

  Tonight was Jake's turn to cook. He decided to make tacos.

 He marinated the pork in garlic, red onions, salt, pepper, and tequila.  He took a half of a  red onion and sauteed it in olive oil, then a he browned the pork , he then added garlic, red pepper flakes, 1/2 cup of chicken broth, and 1 jalapeno. He let that simmer until it reduced by 1/2. He then did something that scares me to death (maybe not that scary), he poured tequila into the pan, then set it on fire. Thank goodness he didn't set the house on fire. That was it.

 He did something a little different, he took soft taco shells, heated them, spread spinach dip on them, then placed a few leaves of spinach, taco shredded cheese, the pork with onions, and peppers, then lastly he topped them with some pico de gallo. I asked why the spinach dip, he said, "Look at it this way, it's just a flavored sour cream." I couldn't argue with that. Simple and good!
