Chile Verde image

Found this recipe on the back of the La Victoria jar and it's good. I change my recipe in that my pork is cooked first and instead of cubing it - it is more shreaded. When I make pork butt - this is what I do with my left overs - I make this chile verde recipe!

Time 2h

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lb pork shoulder butt - cubed
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
3 Tbsp vegetable oil
1 Tbsp butter
1 large onion minced or diced (or 1/2 cup dried onion flakes)
4 clove garlic - minced
1 jar(s) la victoria salsa verde (16 oz)
1/2 c water or chicken broth (preferred) or mexican beer

Steps:

  • 1. Cut pork into 1/2-inch cubes; season cubes with salt and pepper. NOTE: I changed my recipe in that my pork is cooked first and instead of cubing it - it is more shreaded. When I make pork butt - this is what I do with my left overs
  • 2. In a large, heavy pan with lid, brown the cubes well in oil and melted butter. If your pork is already cooked - just add it here and skip to step 3
  • 3. Add the onion and garlic and sauté for about 5 minutes, then drain the fat from the pan.
  • 4. Add the remaining ingredients, cover, and simmer for at least 90 minutes, stirring frequently; add more water (or broth or beer) during cooking if necessary to achieve desired sauce texture.
