Susans Pork Enchiladas Recipes

PORK ENCHILADAS RECIPE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Trim fat off of pork. Try to get as much as you can, but you can also leave some for flavor.
• Rub pork with salt, pepper, oregano, brown sugar, coriander, and chili powder.
• Place roast in Instant Pot insert. Add garlic, onion, olive oil, enchilada sauce, chicken broth, and vinegar. Cover and allow it to marinate in refrigerator for at least 1 hour but up to 24 hours.
• Place insert into the Instant Pot. Turn roast in the liquid. Cook on meat setting for 60 minutes. Allow steam to escape when timer goes off.
• Remove roast from liquid and cool slightly. Shred meat with 2 forks until you have small pieces. You probably will not use all of the pork, you can set it aside for another recipe. You can also pull out the bone and use it for another recipe or dispose.
• Leave liquid in the Instant Pot insert. Cook on sauté setting, uncovered for 8 to 10 minutes or until sauce has reduced by one-third.
• Preheat oven to 350 F. Add a 1/2 cup of sauce to shredded pork and toss to coat. Set aside pork and remaining sauce in separate bowls while you prepare tortillas.
• Heat oil in a small sauté pan on medium-high heat. Add a tortilla to pan and cook for 20 seconds per side. Remove from oil with tongs and place on a plate. Continue until you have fried all the tortillas. They are not supposed to get crispy; the oil just helps to make them pliable.
• Dip each tortilla into the sauce you set aside and coat both sides.
• Stack tortillas on a plate until you've coated all of them. Pour a cup of sauce into bottom of a 9 x 13-inch casserole dish. Fill each tortilla with a 1/4 cup of pork, along with a few slices of red onion and a few tablespoons of grated Monterey Jack cheese.
• Roll up tortilla around filling and place seam-side down into baking dish. Fill the baking dish tightly with enchiladas.
• Pour another cup of the sauce of top of enchiladas and then top with remainder of shredded Monterey Jack cheese.
• Bake for 25 minutes, uncovered, until cheese is melted and browned and sauce is bubbly.

ENCHILADAS SUIZAS

Steps:

• Prepare salsa verde: Melt butter in saucepan over medium heat. Saute the onion until soft. Stir in the flour. Add the broth, then add the chiles, garlic, salt, and cumin. Simmer about 15 minutes to blend flavors, then set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C.)
• In a heavy skillet, lightly fry tortillas in shallow oil, being careful not to make them too crisp to roll. Combine the cheeses and keep 1/2 cup aside for topping. Dip each tortilla in salsa verde (both sides.) Place 2 heaping tablespoons chicken and about 2 tablespoons cheese down the center of each; roll and place seam side down in a shallow dish.
• After all the rolled tortillas are in the dish, spoon additional salsa verde over them and then cover evenly with heavy cream. Sprinkle with remaining 1/2 cup cheese mixture, and with the green onions.
• Bake uncovered in preheated oven for 20 minutes. Serve immediately, garnished with the olives, cherry tomatoes, and with additional salsa on the side.

SUSAN'S PORK ENCHILADAS

Steps:

• Saute pork, peppers, onion, and garlic until pork is browned and onions are translucent. Add 1/2 can enchilada sauce to the pork mixture. Cook over medium heat until most of the sauce has evaporated. Remove from heat. Cool a few minutes, so the cilantro does not cook when added. Stir in cilantro until well mixed. Set aside.
• Heat oil in a frying pan and briefly fry on each side corn tortillas, one at a time. (You just want them to be softened, not crisped.) After frying, put them on several layers of paper towels to drain.
• Pour 1/2 can enchilada sauce in the bottom of a 13 x 9 inch glass baking dish (or similar pan.) Divide the pork mixture into the same number of portions as you have tortillas. Do the same with the Monterey Jack cheese. Roll up a portion of pork mixture and Jack cheese into each tortilla and place the roll seam-side down in the pan. Lining up the rolls side by side in the pan. It's OK if the sauce gets smeared on the tortillas and doesn't cover the bottom evenly. Pour the second can of enchilada sauce over the rolls and sprinkle with the cheddar cheese.
• Bake 20-30 minutes at 350F or until bubbly. Top each serving with a dollop of sour cream and a sprig of cilantro.
• You could easily use leftover pork, chopped fine, in place of the ground pork and get the same results.
