Burnt orange Carnitas Plate

Method

1. Gather and prep everything first: olive oil, garlic, yellow onion and set within reach of the stove.
2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the fresh ginger and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
3. Turn the heat up, add the carnitas, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
4. Fold in the yellow onion and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Off the heat, brighten it up with a squeeze of lemon and a final crack of pepper.
6. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
