Jackfruit Carnitas
with Charra Beans & Salsa Verde
It’s hard to believe this dish is completely vegan. That's because the roasted jackfruit has a remarkable resemblance to the pulled pork of traditional carnitas. Here, the tropical fruit is cooked with garlic and Mexican spices, then served over wild rice combined with tomato and poblano. As a riff on refried beans, pinto beans are folded into a creamy, spicy base of caramelized onion, tomato paste, chiles, and cumin.
