Adobada

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Adobada, literally Spanish for "marinated", is a concept for many dishes that are common in Mexican cuisine similar to tacos. Adobada is generally pork marinated in a "red" chili sauce with vinegar and oregano, but it can refer to different types of meat and to marinates closer to Al pastor. It is generally served on small, pliable maize tortilla along with sauteed vegetables and cheese.

Carne adovada is a variation popular in New Mexican cuisine, where it is served as a main dish or in a burrito, or occasionally found in tacos or enchiladas.
