Categories     Main Course

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 18

3 1/2 pounds pork loin sirloin or boneless pork chops
2 tablespoons garlic salt
2 tablespoons freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8-10 garlic cloves (, minced)
1 large white onion (, sliced thinly)
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
6 cups water
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 16- ounce jars of tomatillo salsa verde
1 7- ounce can jalapeño salsa
1 tablespoon tomato paste
2 cups roasted Hatch chiles (, chopped, or 1 cup Hatch chiles and 1 cup mild green chiles, chopped if you prefer less heat)
Flour tortillas
Shredded cheddar cheese
Sour cream, diced onion, lettuce, and avocado for serving

Steps:

  • Cut the pork into 1/2-inch cubes and season with the garlic salt, black pepper, kosher salt, cumin, and chili powder. Heat a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat with half of the vegetable oil. Cook half of the pork until browned, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes, then transfer to a large bowl. Add the rest of the vegetable oil and cook the remaining pork. Add the garlic and sliced onions and cook until softened, about 3-4 minutes. Add to the bowl with the first batch of pork. Add 5 cups of water to the Dutch oven, bring to a boil, and stir to deglaze all of the bits off the bottom of the pan. Add the remaining 1 cup water and the flour to a jar fitted with a lid, shake vigorously until combined, and add to the Dutch oven. Cook for 10-15 minutes or until the mixture thickens. Add the salsa verde, jalapeño salsa, tomato paste, onion, and chiles with the reserved pork and its juices. Bring to a boil then reduce to a bubbling simmer and cook for 5-10 minutes and up to 1 hour for flavors to deepen even more.
  • To assemble the burritos, lay out the tortillas and fill the lower 1/3 of the tortilla with 1/2 to 3/4 cup pork and sauce, top with cheese and fold. Place in a baking dish and repeat with the additional burritos. Pour more sauce over the burritos, top with shredded cheese and broil in the oven or toaster oven until the cheese melts. Garnish with sour cream, onion, lettuce and tomatoes if desired.

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h30m

Yield 1 gallon

Number Of Ingredients 16

Olive oil
5 cups diced onion
1/2 cup chopped garlic
1/3 cup chopped serrano peppers
1/3 cup chopped jalapeno peppers
5 pounds cubed pork shoulder
1 quart chicken broth
15 to 20 Anaheim peppers
12 to 15 tomatillos
3 tablespoons garlic powder
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon Mexican oregano
1 teaspoon ground coriander
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 cup corn flour

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • In a medium saucepan over medium heat, add 1/2 cup of olive oil. Stir in the onion, garlic, serrano and jalapeno peppers and cook until soft. Remove from heat and set aside.
  • Place the pork shoulder in a large heavy bottomed pot, coated with oil, over medium heat and sear until well browned on all sides. Deglaze with the chicken broth, and then add sauteed onions and peppers. Turn heat to low, cover and let it simmer for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, place the Anaheim peppers on a sheet pan.
  • Peel the outer paper skins off the tomatillos, then coat with olive oil and place on another sheet pan. Place both pans in the preheated oven and roast until the peppers are nicely charred and the tomatillos are soft, about 20 minutes.
  • Remove pans from the oven and place the peppers in a plastic bag to let them steam for 5 minutes.
  • Peel and seed peppers, and then puree them with the tomatillos in a food processor. Add the puree to the pork mixture, stir, and then let simmer on low heat.
  • Combine the garlic powder, black pepper, ground cumin, Mexican oregano, ground coriander and salt in a small bowl, then add to pork mixture and stir well.
  • In a small saute pan, mix 1/2 cup olive oil with the corn flour, stirring over low heat for 2 minutes to make a masa roux.
  • Let the chili mixture simmer for approximately 1 1/2 to 2 hours on medium-low heat, or until pork is nice and tender. Then stir in masa roux and simmer for 10 more minutes.

CHILI VERDE FOR BURRITOS



Chili Verde for Burritos image

My DH taught me how to make Chili Verde (one of his favorites), but over time, we both thought the recipe was kinda blah. So I looked up recipes here on Zaar, and in various cookbooks, and the result is what I'm posting. It's sort of a combination of Chili Verde *and* Salsa Verde recipes. If you wanted to have a green chili stew, just cut up a couple of potatoes, and double the tomatoes. Anyway, DH loves this version much better than what we started with, and so do I.... hope you do to :) PS: I used pork tenderloin, because it's boneless, has less fat, and is really easy to work with, and in my area, frequently on sale for a 1.99 a pound. But you can use whatever cut you prefer.

Categories     Pork

Time 2h30m

Yield 12 burritos, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 1/2 lbs pork tenderloin
1 (28 ounce) can tomatillos
2 (7 ounce) cans diced green chilies
3 ounces slivered almonds
1 medium onion, diced
1 garlic clove (diced or crushed)
1 cup chicken broth
cumin
chili powder
1 jalapeno (fresh or canned)
1 tablespoon oil (olive, canola or if you prefer, bacon drippings.)
12 flour tortillas (we use the huge ones)
cheese
sour cream
whole black beans
refried guacamole
Mexican rice

Steps:

  • Place pork loin in freezer for about 30 minutes - this will make it easier to cut. Trim all visible fat, and cut into cubes - about 1 inch or so.
  • Heat oil in dutch oven, and add pork. Cook til all sides are lightly brown. Remove pork with a slotted spoon, onto a plate or small bowl.
  • Add onion to pan and cook until lightly browned and add garlic.
  • While onion is browning, put the almonds in a blender or food processor and pulse until almonds are the consistency of meal (don't go to far or you'll have almond butter). Add tomatillos, 1 can of the green chilis, and the jalapeno. Puree for about 1 minute.
  • When onions and garlic are done, add tomatillo mixture to pan.
  • Season mixture with cumin and chili powder. I probably use about 4 to 5 tablespoons cumin and 1 tablespoon chili powder. It's really just up to you and what you prefer.
  • Return pork to pan, add chicken broth and bring to a slow boil. Cover and reduce heat to simmer.
  • Cook covered for about 1 hour. Uncover and continue cooking until liquid reduces to your preference.
  • Make burritos with the condiments you and your family prefer.
