Citrus Marinade (Carnitas)
Here's a recipe with some great freshness to it. This is great on Pork add it to a pork chop and let it sit in the fridge for 2 hours. (Not longer, not shorter) This is super simple and the only thing you might not have in your pantry is the cilantro. I often by cilantro for other things recipes and make some of this marinade to use up the cilantro before it goes bad.
