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.

GREEN CHILE PORK BURRITOS WITH GREEN, GREEN, GREEN...
Steps:
- For the green chile pork: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Toss the tomatillos, onion, garlic and chiles with a few tablespoons of oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast until slightly charred and soft, about 40 minutes. Transfer the mixture to a food processor, add the lime juice and cilantro and process until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
- Reduce the heat of the oven to 350 degrees F. Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a large Dutch oven over high heat until the oil begins to shimmer. Season the pork with salt and pepper and cook the meat in batches until golden brown on all sides, transferring to a plate as done. Remove any excess oil, then return the pork to the Dutch oven, add the tomatillo sauce and pork to the Dutch oven and toss to coat.
- Add enough chicken stock to cover the pork, and cook until fork tender, about 1 1/2 hours.
- Allow the pork to cool slightly, then shred with two forks. Heat some of the cooking liquid in a large saute pan, add the shredded pork and cook for a few minutes. Taste, and add honey if desired.
- For the green rice: Heat the oil in a medium saucepan over high heat. Add the onion and cook until soft. Stir in the rice. Add 2 cups of water, season with salt and pepper and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover and cook until tender, about 18 minutes. Remove from the heat, stir in the cilantro and spinach, cover and let sit for 5 minutes.
- For the guacamole: Combine the avocados, onion, lime juice, jalapeno and cilantro in a bowl. Use a fork to mash to a chunky mix. Season with salt and pepper.
- For the white beans with onion vinaigrette: Combine the beans, onion and garlic in a large saucepan, cover with water and cook until just tender, about 1 hour. Drain and discard the onion and garlic.
- Combine the green onions, vinegar, a splash of water and salt and pepper to taste in a blender and blend until smooth. With the motor running, slowly add the oil to create an emulsified vinaigrette.
- Combine the beans and green onion vinaigrette in bowl.
- To assemble: Spoon some green rice on each tortilla, add some white beans with green onion vinaigrette, some green chile pork and top with guacamole. Garnish with Cotija cheese, queso fresco, hot sauce and cilantro. Fold the edges of each tortilla into the center and roll them up tightly.

Steps:
- To make pork: Lightly oil grill grate. Brush pork with oil and season with chili powder and salt. Grill pork over medium-high heat, with lid closed, about 4 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches between 145 degrees F. (medium rare) to 160 degrees F. (medium) on a digital meat thermometer. Remove from grill and let rest for 3 minutes.
- Place tortillas on grill grate and cook until heated, about 30 seconds per side. Remove from grill and wrap in a napkin to keep warm.
- To assemble burrito: Chop pork into bite-sized pieces. For each burrito, spread 2 tablespoons of beans in a wide strip on center of tortilla. Top with rice and cheese, evenly distributed between the burritos, and 1/6 of chopped pork. Sprinkle with cilantro. Fold in right and left sides, and roll up tortilla from the bottom. Transfer each to a dinner plate. Smother each with one sixth of warm salsa, add lime wedges and serve immediately.
- Prepare grill for direct cooking over medium-high heat, about 450 degrees F. Place tomatillos and jalapeno on grill grate and cook, with the lid closed, turning them occasionally, until jalapeno skin is blackened and blistered (about 5 minutes) and tomatillos are browned but not bursting (7 to 9 minutes). Transfer them to a bowl as they are done, and let cool. Scrape and discard skin from jalapeno. Seed jalapeno, reserving seeds.
- Pulse avocado, tomatillos and any juices, jalapeno (without seeds), onion, cilantro, oil, garlic, salt and sugar in a blender or food processor until smooth. For a spicier salsa, add seeds. Transfer to a medium saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat to very low to keep salsa warm. Extra salsa can be stored in the refrigerator and kept up to 3 days.
CHILI VERDE FOR BURRITOS
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.

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.
PORK CHILI VERDE (GREEN PORK CHILI)
This chili verde was one of the first recipes I ever learned. It comes out great even if you don't brown the meat, but I think doing so always adds extra flavor so I usually do it.

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.
