A Sweet Heat Thanksgiving: Pavo al Pastor | Sweet Heat with Rick Martinez
Published at : November 12, 2021
It’s time your Thanksgiving turkey got a little pep in its step courtesy of Food52’s Resident Sugar Man Rick Martinez. This pavo al pastor packs both sweet and heat from honey and chipotle chiles and is served with tangy pineapple, caramelized onions, and cranberry salsa macha. Leftovers are excellent in your classic sandwich, birria tacos, or by themselves, on the edge of your fork. GET THE RECIPE ►► https://f52.co/3F3Jx5J
