Cowboy Tacos

This recipe is from the Pilbury Bake-Off in 1996.


1 pound boneless pork loin, cut into 1x1x1/4-inch strips
1 (1.25 ounce) package Old El Paso(R) Taco Seasoning Mix
1 tablespoon oil
1 cup Old El Paso(R) Salsa
1 cup canned spicy chili beans, undrained
1/4 cup apricot preserves
1 (4.6 ounce) package Old El Paso(R) Taco Shells
10 pitted ripe olives, sliced
5 green onions, chopped


In shallow bowl, combine pork and taco seasoning mix; toss to coat.

Heat oil in large skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add pork; cook and stir 3 to 5 minutes or until no longer pink.

Stir in salsa, beans and preserves. Reduce heat to low; simmer 10 to 12 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring occasionally.

Meanwhile, heat taco shells according to package directions. To serve, spoon pork mixture into each taco shell; top with olives and onions.
