Pork Chile Verde

 

Ingredients 

1 boneless pork sirloin roast (3 pounds), cut into 1-inch cubes
4 medium carrots, sliced
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons canola oil
1 can (28 ounces) green enchilada sauce
1/4 cup cold water
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and chopped
1 cup minced fresh cilantro
Hot cooked rice
Flour tortillas, warmed

Directions 

1.  In a large skillet, saute the pork, carrots, onion and garlic in oil in batches until pork is browned. Transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Add the enchilada sauce, water, jalapenos and cilantro. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours or until meat is tender. Serve with rice and tortillas.

Editor's Note:  Wear disposable gloves when cutting hot peppers; the oils can burn skin. Avoid touching your face.
