Pork Chili Verde

Recipes »  Main Dish  »  Meat - Other

A fresh, easy, light version of chili verde. Gluten and grain free. Intense fresh flavors and very low in calories. Morsels of pork are always tender in this dish and if you need something versatile for your carb lovers, let them have it with some fresh tortillas or over rice.

"This was so good! It was packed with flavor and just enough spice. My picky husband liked it so much that he asked me to save the "juice" part of it to put over his breakfast eggs. I didn't have pasilla chili's so I went online and found that poblano peppers can be substituted for pasilla chili's." - colnhausen

Easy healthy fast and tastes out of this world. Hubby was thrilled with it. Added cumin and garlic as reviews suggested. Wouldn't change another thing.
