Pork Chile Verde

This is one of my favourite meals. 
You can use any cut of pork, but my preference is a pork butt or shoulder.

It can be served in bowls, like chili accompanied by homemade flour tortillas.

Or

Or over flour tortillas filled with cheese.

With a side of beans.

I used the leftovers to make a layered dip for the next day’s dinner.

 
Beans topped with pork chile verde, cheese, sour cream, guacamole, homemade salsa, chopped tomatoes and black olives.

I cut up the leftover flour tortillas and fried them.

Makes great scoops for the dip.
I prefer fried flour tortilla chips over corn tortilla chips. 

 Margarita,
made with the juice of an orange, lime and lemon, a little sugar syrup ,
Tequila and Triple Sec.

    Delicious recipe. I love tomatillios but only use them to make a chicken dish I've made forever… need to try a pork version. Thanks for the great recipe!

    Mmmmm…we LOVE Chili Verde! I have never made it, though, and am thrilled to see your recipe! We had a chili verde pizza recently that rocked the world!

    Perfect food for a cold, wintry day! We're off to the movies in a bit, and I know these images will play themselves over and over in my head. It's highly doubtful that theater popcorn will fill that void.

  5. WOW is all I can think of to say!!
