I love chili verde. I order it whenever I can at restaurants, and figured out how to make an easy, tasty version at home. People have the option to eat the chili verde with a fork or in tortillas with a variety of toppings such as cheese, cilantro, minced onions or lime wedges. There are never leftovers at my house. —Julie Rowland, Salt Lake City, Utah

Ingredients

  • 1 boneless pork shoulder roast (4 to 5 pounds), cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 3 cans (10 ounces each) green enchilada sauce
  • 1 cup salsa verde
  • 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chiles
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • Hot cooked rice
  • Sour cream, optional

Directions

  1. In a 5-qt. slow cooker, combine pork, enchilada sauce, salsa verde, green chiles and salt. Cook, covered, on low until pork is tender, 5-6 hours. Serve with rice. If desired, top with sour cream.
