Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a medium bowl, whisk 1 1/2 tablespoons of the vinegar, the thyme, 3/4 teaspoon of the salt and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Add the olive oil slowly, whisking.
-
Heat the oven to 350 °F. Cut the pork into 1/4-inch slices, and then cut the slices into 1/4-inch strips. In a large frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of the cooking oil over high heat. Add half the pork, sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, and sauté until cooked through and just beginning to brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon cooking oil and cook the rest of the pork, seasoning it with the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt.
-
Return all the pork to the pan. Stir in the barbecue sauce, cumin, the remaining 1 tablespoon vinegar and two thirds (about 1 cup) of the cheese. Spread some of the pork mixture in a line just below the center of each tortilla. Roll up the burritos and put them seam-side down in a small baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes, sprinkle with the remaining cheese and bake until the cheese melts and the filling is hot, about 2 minutes longer.
-
Meanwhile, put the lettuce, tomatoes, bell peppers and cucumber into the bowl and toss. Put the salad on plates and top with the burritos.
-
Wine Recommendation: With sweet, smoky-tasting barbecue, it's a toss-up between an exuberant Californian zinfandel and a lush, jammy Australian shiraz.
