Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb lean pork chops cut into ½-inch pieces
  • ¼ cup flour or cornstarch
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper

  • 28 oz can salsa verde or green chile sauce
  • 4 cups chicken broth

Method
 

Step 1: Coat the Pork
  1. In a resealable bag or bowl, toss the pork pieces with flour (or cornstarch) to coat lightly.
Step 2: Layer in the Crockpot
  1. Place the coated pork evenly in the base of your slow cooker. Season with salt, pepper, and minced garlic.
Step 3: Add Veggies
  1. Add the chopped onion and diced potatoes on top of the pork.
  2. Step 4: Pour in Sauces & Broth
  3. Pour the salsa verde (or green chile sauce) evenly over the potatoes and meat. Then add the chicken broth, ensuring ingredients are mostly submerged.
Step 5: Cook
  1. Cover and cook on low heat for 6–8 hours, or until the pork is tender and potatoes are cooked through.
Step 6: Garnish and Serve
  1. Stir gently. Serve hot, garnished with chopped cilantro. Warm tortillas or crusty bread make perfect sides.
