Ingredients
3 tbs olive oil
1 package (1 oz) Old El Paso original taco seasoning mix
1 1/4 lb pork tenderloin, cut into 1-inch pieces
2 medium dark-orange sweet potatoes (about 1 lb), peeled, cut into 1/2-inch pieces
1 cup mayonnaise
2 tbs finely chopped chipotle chiles in adobo sauce
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tbs lime juice
3 cups shredded green cabbage
1 package (4.7 oz) Old El Paso Stand ‘N Stuff taco shells (10 shells)
2 tbs salted roasted pepitas
2 tbs chopped fresh cilantro leaves
Directions

1. Heat oven to 425°F. Spray large rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. In large bowl, mix oil and taco seasoning mix. Add pork tenderloin and sweet potatoes; toss to coat. Spread in single layer on baking sheet. Roast 20 to 25 minutes or until potatoes are tender and pork is no longer pink in center (145°F).

 

2. Meanwhile, in medium bowl, mix mayonnaise, chipotles in adobo, garlic and lime juice. Reserve 2 tablespoons mixture for topping tacos; set aside. Add cabbage to remaining mayonnaise mixture in bowl; toss to coat.

 

3. Heat taco shells as directed on box. Divide cabbage mixture among shells; top with pork and sweet potatoes. Top with remaining mayonnaise mixture, pepitas and cilantro.

 

Expert Tips: Orange-fleshed sweet potatoes are often labeled “garnet yams” in grocery stores. Pepitas are small edible pumpkin seeds that add a delicious, salty crunch to tacos, salads and more.
