Mike's Green Chili Pork Burritos
Since my youngest students are just learning how to utilize one primary ingredient for more than just one dish - today they bring to you a two for one dinner special! One chunk of juicy pork - two separate delicious recipes!
Cooking instructions
* Step 1
Simmer pork roast in a crock pot for 6 to 8 hours in beef or chicken broth.
* Step 2
Pull pork meat from broth and allow to cool slightly. Strain broth of any floating fats.
* Step 3
Fine shread pork meat with forks and disgard any fat or anything unsightly.
* Step 4
Reserve 1 cup broth for the shreadded chicken for burritos. Reserve the rest of the stock and 1 pound shreadded pork to make a healthy pork stew. Or, a Green Chili Stew If interested, see steps 13 thru 15.
* Step 5
Chop all vegetables for your refried beans. You'll leave these raw as they'll act as a crispy Pico de Gallo within your burritos.
* Step 6
Use a refried bean product like Rosarita, GOYA or Old Elpaso. They're all great brands.
* Step 7
Heat beans and mix with your crispy vegetables.
* Step 8
Fry pulled pork for burritos covered in 1 cup broth, 1 packet Old Elpaso Taco Seasoning, 1 - 4 oz can of green chilies and 1/2 cup of your favorite green salsa. Steam well. Stir occasionally.
* Step 9
Smear heated refried bean mixture on warm tortilla and add hot seasoned fried shreadded pork meat. All ingredients should be fully heated. Or, at room temp [i.e., cheeses, tortillas] before construction and placing in Panini Press or grilling.
* Step 10
Add whatever fillers you'd like before wrapping up tortillas tightly.
* Step 11
Place burritos in hot press until scored and cheese has melted.
* Step 12
Serve burritos hot with green salsa, sour cream, Mexican 3 cheese, lettuce and tomatoes & Avacado slices. Also, a side of Green Chili Stew. Enjoy!
* Step 13
You're already half way there if interested in making the pork stew. Just add whatever vegetables you have on hand, [i.e., chopped onions, potatoes, carrots, celery, bell peppers, tomatoes, cilantro, etc., a McCormick Beef Stew packet [a great cheater] and additional herbs & spices]
* Step 14
Simmer stew for a few more hours in your same crock pot until vegetables have softened. You can also add a pint of Hatch Green Chili to your stew for an extra kick. It's always a delicious option!
* Step 15
Serve your stew with fresh bread or warm flour tortillas. Enjoy!
