Method

  1. Start by prepping your corn tortillas, lime, cilantro so the cooking goes quickly.
  2. Warm a splash of olive oil in a heavy pan over medium heat, then add the garlic and cook until soft and fragrant, about 4 to 5 minutes.
  3. Turn the heat up, add the birria, and cook until deeply browned and aromatic.
  4. Fold in the cilantro and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
  5. Taste and adjust, then finish with a grating of hard cheese right before serving.
  6. Serve warm, ideally with something to soak up the sauce.
