Ingredients
For the Pickled Red Onions
- 1½ cups water
- ¾ cups cider vinegar
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 teaspoon GOYA® Adobo All-Purpose Seasoning with Pepper
- 1 red onion thinly sliced
For the Tortas
- 1 cup plus 2 tbsp. GOYA® Mojo Piña divided
- 1 pork tenderloin cut crosswise into 4 even pieces, then pounded to thickness of about ⅜”, about 1¼ pounds
- ¼ cup GOYA EXTRA VIRGIN OLIVE OIL divided
- ½ Fresh Pineapple halved lengthwise, cored, and cut crosswise into 8 strips
- 4 Poblano peppers stemmed, seeded and cut lengthwise into quarters
- 4 bolillo or kaiser rolls split
- 1 avocado sliced
- 1 cup grated or thinly sliced GOYA® Queso Blanco cheese
- ¾ cup GOYA® Jalapeño Nacho Slices
- ⅓ cup chopped cilantro
Instructions
- Make Pickled Onions: In a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, bring to simmer water, vinegar, sugar and Adobo. Stir in onions. Transfer onion mixture to bowl or glass jar until cool. Cover and store in refrigerator up to 3 days.
- Marinate Pork and Pineapples: In a plastic zip-top bag, combine 1 cup Mojo Piña, pork and 3 tablespoons olive oil. Seal bag, massage to coat pork in marinade and transfer to refrigerator for at least 2 hours, and up to 24 hours. In a separate zip-top bag, combine pineapple with remaining 2 tablespoons Mojo and remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Seal bag, massage to coat and marinate 15 minutes. Remove pork and pineapples from marinade, discarding marinade.
- Grill Pork, Pineapple and Poblano: Heat grill to medium-high heat. Add pork, pineapples and poblano peppers to hot grill grates. Grill pork, flipping once, until just pink in center (145°F on instant-read thermometer), about 6 minutes. Grill poblanos and pineapple until just tender, about 6-8 minutes; transfer to plate.
- Assemble Tortas: Scoop out some of soft bread from roll tops. Layer bottom rolls with poblano, pork, pineapple, avocado and cheese. Top with jalapeños, cilantro and reserved pickled red onions to taste.
