Method
- Start by prepping your corn tortillas, lime, cilantro so the cooking goes quickly.
- Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the garlic in a little butter until translucent.
- Add the birria and let it smoky, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
- Stir in the black pepper along with a good pinch of salt, scraping up anything stuck to the bottom of the pan.
- Taste and adjust, then finish with a grating of hard cheese right before serving.
- Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
