With the weather cooling and the leaves changing color, there is no other like comfort food. I made this dish last night for the first time and it came out perfect! I will definitelty add it to my weekly meal plan. Please see the recipe below my fellow keto’nians.


INGREDIENTS

2 lbs. pork loin, cubed
1tsp. salt
2 tsp. ground cumin
2 tsp. granulated garlic
1 tsp. pure chili powder (optional)
2 oz. onion, chopped
2 cloves of garlic
1 can of whole Hatch green chilies and the liquid (27 oz can)
3 tbsp. oil
2 cups of water


DIRECTIONS


1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and cook the pork loin until browned.


2. Chop the onion and the garlic. Put the chilies from the can in a blender together with the garlic and onion and process until the chilies look like a thick and chunky paste. Add the spices in the frying pan with the pork and stir until it becomes fragrant. Pour the chilies, together with their juice that was in the can, over the pork loin.


3. Add the water. Stir and reduce heat to medium-low and then to low. Cover the frying pan, but keep the lid slightly ajar and let it simmer for about 1 – 1 1/2 hours until and the pork becomes tender and the chilies are cooked.


4. Serve in a bowl and try pairing with cauliflower rice. Enjoy…
