    Ingredients

    • Tomatillos
    • Garlic
    • Cilantro
    • Jalapenos
    • Fire Roasted Green Chiles
    • Potatoes
    • Pork loin
    • Onion
    • Salt

    Swaps and Substitutions

    • Use Yucca in place of the potatoes.
    • Try White Sweet Potatoes in place of the potatoes.
    • Use a pre-made jar of Salsa Verde instead of making one.

    How to Make

    For the sauce, place all the ingredients into a blender, and blend until just smooth. Set aside.

    Bring a large pan of water to a boil, and add the potatoes. Cook until just fork tender, then drain.

    Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the pork and cook thoroughly, about 10 minutes.

    Add the onion and garlic to the skillet and cook for a few minutes until translucent and fragrant.

    Add the sauce to the pan and mix thoroughly. Let simmer for a few minutes to mix the flavors.

    Add the potatoes and pork mixture together and stir. Serve topped with cilantro and enjoy!
