Shredded Pork And Pinto Tacos With Pepita Slaw

• 2/3 cup sliced shallots
• 1/2 cup unsalted chicken stock
• 1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
• 3/4 teaspoon ground cumin, divided
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
• 8 ounces pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut in half crosswise
• 5 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
• 1 (15-ounce) can unsalted pinto beans, rinsed and drained
• 1 1/2 cups thinly sliced red cabbage
• 1/4 cup coarsely chopped fresh cilantro leaves
• 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice, divided
• 1 teaspoon canola oil
• 2 tablespoons pepitas (toasted pumpkinseeds)
• 1/3 cup plain fat-free Greek yogurt
• 1 ripe avocado, peeled
• 8 corn tortillas

1. Combine shallots, stock, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, paprika, pork, and garlic in a small saucepan; bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 25 minutes. Remove pork from pan; set aside. Increase heat to medium; cook 8 minutes or until liquid is reduced to about 2 to 3 tablespoons. Shred pork with 2 forks; stir pork and beans into cooking liquid. Mash some of the beans to thicken and bind the mixture.
2. While pork cooks, combine cabbage, cilantro, 1 1/2 tablespoons lime juice, oil, and 1/4 teaspoon salt; toss well to combine. Sprinkle with pepitas.
3. Combine yogurt, avocado, remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons lime juice, 1/4 teaspoon cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a small bowl; mash to desired consistency.
4. Heat tortillas directly over a gas flame or in a hot cast-iron skillet for 20 seconds on each side or until lightly charred. Divide pork mixture, slaw, and avocado mixture evenly among tortillas.
5. Shredded Chicken Taco Variation: In place of pork tenderloin, use 2 (4-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken thighs. Decrease simmering time from 25 to 15 minutes, and increase smoked paprika to 5/8 teaspoon.
