This lightened version of the Hawaiian favorite swaps lean pork tenderloin for the more traditional (and much fattier) pork shoulder. The fresh salsa of apple and pineapple provides color, flavor and crunch.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F.
- In small bowl, beat Sauce Mixture ingredients with whisk; set aside.
- Place pork tenderloins on plate, and rub with 1 tablespoon oil, the salt and pepper. Heat ovenproof 12-inch skillet (not nonstick) over medium-high heat until very hot. Add both pieces of pork, and brown 2 minutes, then turn and brown on second side for another 2 minutes. Brown on third side 2 minutes longer, then pour sauce mixture over pork; immediately transfer to oven. Bake 5 minutes; pour vinegar over pork. Bake 25 to 30 minutes longer or until pork is cooked through and can easily be pulled apart with fork.
- Wrap corn tortillas in foil, and add to oven with pork last 15 minutes of bake time just to heat through.
- Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat brown sugar, pepper flakes, lime juice and 1 tablespoon oil with whisk. Add apples, pineapple and onion; toss to coat. Set aside.
- Remove skillet of pork from oven; using tongs, roll pork in sauce in bottom of skillet, then cover loosely with foil, and rest 5 minutes. Shred with fork, and toss with sauce in skillet.
- Place slightly less than 1/4 cup pork in each taco, and top with 1/3 cup of the salsa and a few cilantro leaves.
