Directions
- 1Season the ground pork with fresh ginger, garlic, soy sauce, and spices in a bowl. Mix until well combined.
- 2Divide the pork into 8 equally-sized balls. Place on top of each corn tortilla then smash over the entire surface of the tortilla.
- 3Combine honey, soy sauce, sesame oil, sesame seeds, hoisin sauce, lime juice, sriracha, and fresh ginger in a saucepan to make the sticky glaze. Bring to a boil then simmer 3-4 minutes, until slightly thickened.
- 4In a large skillet, add the olive oil.
- 5Cook pork-side down for 2 minutes, then flip to cook 1 minute, or until the tortilla has crisped up along the edges.
- 6Brush the pork in the glaze, then flip to cook 30 seconds. If needed, cook the tortilla another 1 minute. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
- 7Garnish the tacos with fresh cilantro, pickled onions, and scallions. Squeeze lime juice on top.
- 8Enjoy warm.

Tips
- If time allows, always a great choice to let the meat marinate to help those flavors develop more, but you can also just go ahead and use it right away.
- Ground pork is safe to eat when cooked to 160 degrees.
