Salsa Verde Mexican Pork Chili Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine tomatillos, serrano peppers, and garlic in a bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and toss to coat. Transfer to a baking sheet.
• Place in the preheated oven and roast until tender, about 30 minutes. Remove vegetables from oven, cool slightly, and transfer to the bowl of a food processor. Puree until smooth. Reduce oven temperature to 275 degrees F (135 degrees C).
• While vegetables are roasting, heat lard in a Dutch oven or heavy oven-safe pot over medium-high heat. Sprinkle pork with garlic salt and pepper and add to the pot in batches. Cook each batch until browned, about 7 minutes, removing to a plate with a slotted spoon. Drain and discard all but 2 tablespoons pan drippings.
• Add onion and bell pepper to the pot. Saute, stirring occasionally, until onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Pour wine into the pan and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon. Stir in browned pork, tomatillo puree, chicken stock, cilantro, oregano, cumin, and salt.
• Cover and cook in the oven until pork is tender, 3 1/2 to 4 hours. Allow to stand for 15 minutes, covered, before serving.

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in a pot over high heat until it's nearly smoking. Add pork shoulder cubes in a single layer. Let sear until brown on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Mix and turn pieces over and brown on the other side, 4 to 5 minutes. Add onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring until onions turn translucent, about 4 minutes. Add oregano, cumin, coriander, and cayenne. Stir and cook until seasonings get fragrant, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low.
• Remove paper husk from tomatillos and rinse. Cut into quarters. Place in blender with garlic, jalapeno pepper, poblano, cilantro, and chicken broth. Pulse on and off until pieces start to break down. Then blend until mixture has liquefied, about 30 seconds. Stir sauce into the meat mixture. Add 1 teaspoon salt and bay leaf. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low to maintain a slow but steady simmer for about 1 hour. Add potatoes, 1/2 teaspoon salt, black pepper. If mixture has reduced to where potatoes are not immersed, add more broth to cover. Simmer until meat and potatoes are tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Garnish individual servings with a dollop of sour cream, some pickled red onions (if desired), and cilantro leaves.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• 2. Season the pork with salt, pepper, fennel, and cumin. Prepare a large oven proof dish with enough olive oil to generously coat the bottom. Set aside. In a large Dutch oven in stove top, heat more olive oil on medium high. Sear the pork roast on all sides. About 3-4 minutes per side.
• 3. Take pork out of Dutch oven and place in baking dish. Add vegetables, spreading out tomatillos, poblanos, onion, garlic and bay leaf around the seared pork. Drizzle more olive oil over roast, squeeze lime juice all over and season with salt and pepper.
• 4. Cover the whole dish in aluminum foil and roast in the oven for 2-2 1/2 hours. Pork should be falling apart when done.
• 5. Remove from oven and take the pork out so you can pull it apart with a fork.
• 6. Take all the vegetables (discard bay leaf and remove stems from the three poblano peppers) along with some of the juices (do not discard juices) and put in a blender with the fresh cilantro. Process till smooth.
• 7. Pour blended mixture into the large Dutch oven. Add extra juices as well and turn to medium heat on stove top. Add the chicken broth. Bring to a simmer and whisk in masa harina to thicken.
• 8. Fold in the pulled pork and season with more salt and pepper as needed. Serve with toppings of crumbled queso fresco, sliced radishes, Mexican crema with lime zest, fried tortilla strips, and fresh lime wedges for an extra come alive zesty taste!

Steps:

• In a 5-qt. slow cooker, combine pork, enchilada sauce, salsa verde, green chiles and salt. Cook, covered, on low until pork is tender, 5-6 hours. Serve with rice. If desired, top with sour cream.

Steps:

• Cook the rice according to the package instructions.
• Meanwhile, heat the olive oil and butter in a large Dutch oven over medium heat. When the oil is hot and the butter has melted, add the garlic, poblanos, onions and jalapenos, then stir to combine. Add the sausage meat and season with the salt and pepper. Cook the sausage, crumbling it as you go, until browned, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Add the enchilada sauce, salsa verde and green chiles with their liquid. Bring to a simmer and cook for 10 to 12 minutes, to thicken and develop the flavors. Stir in the lime juice. Taste and adjust the seasonings as needed.
• Serve alongside the rice and garnish with the sour cream, radish, cilantro and hot sauce.
