-
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork pieces and brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes. Remove the pork from the skillet and set aside.
-
In the same skillet, add the chopped onion and minced garlic. Sauté until the onion is translucent and fragrant, about 3-4 minutes.
-
Add the diced zucchinis to the skillet and cook until they start to soften, about 5 minutes.
-
Stir in the drained corn kernels and diced tomatoes, along with the cumin and chili powder. Mix well to combine.
-
Return the browned pork to the skillet and stir everything together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
-
Reduce the heat to low, cover the skillet, and let the mixture simmer for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pork is cooked through and tender.
-
Once the pork is cooked, remove the skillet from the heat and let it sit for a few minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
-
Serve the Tex Mex Calabacita Con Puerco over cooked rice, garnished with fresh cilantro.
