👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. Drain and rinse the canned jackfruit thoroughly. Trim any hard core pieces and use your fingers or two forks to shred the jackfruit into stringy pieces, resembling pulled pork.
2. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or pot over medium heat. Add the chopped red onion and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and translucent.
3. Add the minced garlic, smoked paprika, cumin powder, and chili powder (if using) to the skillet; cook for another minute until fragrant.
4. Stir in the shredded jackfruit, BBQ sauce, apple cider vinegar, and water (or vegetable broth). Bring the mixture to a simmer.
5. Reduce heat to low, cover the skillet, and let it simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the jackfruit is tender and has absorbed the flavors.
6. Remove the lid and continue to cook for 5-10 minutes more, stirring frequently, to allow any excess liquid to evaporate and the sauce to thicken slightly. Serve hot.
