GREEN ENCHILADA PORK CHILI

Steps:

• In a 4 quart pot, heat 2 tablespoons olive oil over medium heat. Add the jalapenos and saute for 1 minute. Stir in the ground pork and cook until evenly brown. Remove the browned pork and jalapenos from the pot and set aside.
• In the same pot used to cook the meat, add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, butter, and onion. Cook for 2 minutes or until the onion starts to soften. Stir in the salt, cumin, paprika, cayenne, and black pepper and cook until the onion is soft. Mix in the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
• Reduce the heat to low. Sprinkle the flour over the onion and garlic. Cook, stirring for three minutes. Slowly pour the enchilada sauce into the onion mixture, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming. Mix in the green salsa and water.
• Return the cooked pork and jalapenos to the pot. Increase the heat to medium and slowly bring the soup to a boil. When the soup boils, reduce the heat and simmer for 30 minutes. Before serving remove from heat and stir in chopped cilantro and lime juice.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Place pork on a rimmed baking sheet; rub with cumin, and season with salt and pepper. Roast, turning once, until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of pork registers 145 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes; cut into 4 chunks. Using two forks, shred pork; transfer to a medium bowl and set aside.
• In a large saucepan, heat oil over medium; add onion and garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to soften, 4 to 6 minutes. Add tomatillos and 3/4 cup water. Bring to a boil, and reduce to a simmer; cook until tomatillos are soft, 5 to 7 minutes.
• Transfer to a food processor, and blend until smooth; season sauce with salt and pepper. Add 1 cup sauce and corn to pork; mix to combine. Transfer remaining sauce to a shallow bowl.
• Wrap stacked tortillas in damp paper towels; microwave on high for 1 minute to soften. Working with one tortilla at a time, dip in sauce, place on a work surface, and fill with 1/4 cup pork mixture and 1 tablespoon cheese.

GREEN CHILE ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Prepare all of the veggies being used, set aside and preheat the oven to 375°F.
• If using fresh pork shoulder steaks: Remove excess fat from 1½ pounds of pork shoulder steaks. Season with salt, garlic powder, cumin powder and onion powder then slowly simmer in oil in a skillet till tender. When the pork has completed cooking set it aside.
• If using shredded pork, leftover chicken, leftover cooked roast beef, leftover cooked steak: shred the meat and set aside. Meanwhile, gently sauté the chopped onions and garlic with oil in a skillet for about 5 minutes and mix into the reserved meat mixture and set aside.
• If using fresh ground beef or turkey, sauté it with the onions, garlic and ground cumin in a frying pan till the beef is brown and no longer pink. Drain off the fat and set aside.
• Moisten six sheets of paper towels, wrap them around the tortillas and microwave them for 45 seconds on high power so to soften them.
• Spoon 1 Tbsp of the reserved enchilada sauce mix over each tortilla, spoon ~ ¼ cup of meat mixture and a little cheese on top and roll up the tortillas. Smear ½ cup of the sauce on the bottom of an 8x11 baking dish and place the rolled tortillas in the dish.
• Add any remaining meat to the bowl of the enchilada sauce and stir well. Pour this mix over the enchiladas. Sprinkle the remainder of the cheese over the enchiladas and bake for 15 - 20 minutes in the preheated oven at 375°F or till the cheese is melted and the sauce is bubbly.
• Remove from the oven and serve with the toppings as described above. I like to serve this with a mixed green salad on the side.
• I like the KISS principle of "keep it simple stupid". For desert, I serve a simplified version of fried ice cream. I roll scoops of vanilla ice cream in crushed frosted corn flakes, add some sliced bananas and squirt a little of chocolate syrup over each serving. Many of you didn't know how to fake a fried ice cream desert, did you?
