Cooking Recipe Pork With Red Chili Sauce
Recipe Ingredients
Directions
Serve this traditional Mexican entree as a filling for corn or flour
tortillas or as an accompaniment to rice and beans. Garnish with
tomato slices and fresh cilantro for a colorful meal.
Trim and discard all fat from the meat and cut into 1-inch cubes.
Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high, and cook meat, a few
pieces at a time, until brown.
Push meat to one side of the pan, add onion, garlic, chili powder,
cumin and oregano; cook until onion is limp.
Stir in water, honey, salt and tomato paste. Simmer, covered, until
pork is tender, about 1 hour. Skim off fat and discard.
To serve, fill warm corn or flour tortillas (made with margarine)
with meat mixture. Include rice or beans, if desired, and garnish.
