Roasted Oaxacan Carnitas

Method

1. Start by prepping your olive oil, garlic, yellow onion so the cooking goes quickly.
2. Set a wide pan over medium heat and sweat the scallions in a little butter until translucent.
3. Add the carnitas and let it roasted, undisturbed, so it takes on real color before you stir.
4. Fold in the tomato paste and season generously; give everything a minute to come together.
5. Add the cream and let it reduce until it just coats the back of a spoon.
6. Taste and adjust, then finish with a squeeze of lemon right before serving.
7. Plate it up while hot and pass extra at the table.
