Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the orange juice, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, pepper, thyme, paprika, cloves, and cayenne pepper.
  • Add the pork cubes to the marinade, making sure each piece is well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for best flavor.
  • In a large skillet or Dutch oven, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
  • Remove the pork from the marinade and shake off any excess liquid. Save the marinade for later.
  • Working in batches, brown the pork pieces on all sides in the hot oil. Remove and set aside.
  • Once all the pork is browned, return it to the skillet along with the reserved marinade.
  • Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 1 hour, or until the pork is tender.
  • Remove the lid and continue to cook until the sauce thickens and coats the pork.
  • Serve the Haitian Griot hot with pikliz and fried plantains on the side.
  • Enjoy!
