Kraft Kitchens Tips

Food Facts

Tacos al pastor are a favorite Mexican street food made from pork marinated in a secret sauce before being topped with pineapple and cooked on a rotisserie. They are served in very small tacos (just 2 bites), topped with cilantro, chopped onions, pineapple and hot sauce.

Where to Find 4-Inch Corn Tortillas

Miniature corn tortillas can typically be found near the butcher section in Mexican grocery stores. They are great for use in the preparation of appetizers, such as these tasty tacos.

Note

Customize this recipe by preparing the marinade with your own combination of chiles.
