1. To Make the Seasoned Ground Pork: Combine all ingredients in a bowl. Mix until well combined. 2. To Make the Sticky Glaze: Combine all ingredients in a saucepan. Bring to a boil then simmer 3-4 minutes, until slightly thickened. 3. To Make the Smashed Tacos: Divide the pork into 8 equally-sized balls. Place on top of each corn tortilla then smash over the entire surface of the tortilla. 4. In a large skillet, add the olive oil. 5. Cook pork-side down for 2 minutes, then flip to cook 1 minute, or until the tortilla has crisped up along the edges. Brush the pork in the glaze, then flip to cook 30 seconds. If needed, cook the tortilla another 1 minute. Repeat with remaining tortillas. 6. If there is more glaze leftover, you can brush on the tortillas. Garnish with the chopped cilantro, scallions, and pickled onions to enjoy warm!
