It's definitely been awhile since I added to this blog, lots of personal and family issues this year...
This is a great recipe for pork, chicken or rabbit, easy to make, but a bit time consuming There are instructions for cooking in a Dutch oven as well. 
 My substitutions are in blue  as I cannot get/find some items in this area.


Slow-Cooker Pulled Pork Tacos.


3 whole ancho chiles      I used 4 Arbol chiles
3 whole pasilla chiles          2 40z cans chopped green chiles 
4 cloves of garlic, unpeeled
2 to 3 chipoltes in adobo sauce
medium white onion, roughly chopped
3 Tbls. extra virgin olive oil
2 Tbls. honey
1 Tbls. cider vinegar
Kosher salt
2 tsp. dried oregano
3 3/4 cups low-sodium chicken broth
4 lbs boneless pork shoulder (untrimmed), cut into chunks (or chicken or rabbit)
Freshly ground pepper
2 bay leaves
1 cinnamon stick
Corn torillas, warmed, for serving
Assorted taco toppings, for garnish


Directions


Put the chiles and the garlic in a bowl: add 2-3 Tbls. water. (If using the canned green chiles, do not add them at this point) Microwave on high until soft 2-3 minutes. Seed and stem chiles (in using the dried Arbol chiles, I skipped this process); peel the garlic. Transfer the chiles and garlic to a blender. (if using the green chiles, add now)
Add the chipoltes, onion, 2 Tbls. olive oil, honey, vinegar, 1 Tbls. salt & the oregano to the blender; puree until smooth. Heat the remaining 1 Tbls. oil in a large skillet over high heat; add the chile sauce and fry, stirring, until thick and fragrant, about 8 minutes. Pour in the broth and reduce until slightly thickened.
Season meat all over with salt and pepper and transfer to a lage slow cooker. Add the bay leaves and cinnamon stick, then pour in the chile sauce. Cover and on high until the meat is tender, about 5 hours. (Or cook the meat in a large Dutch oven, covered, for 1 hour 45 minutes at 350 degrees; uncover and cook an additional 30 minutes)
Discard bay leaves and cinnamon stick. Shred meat using 2 forks; season with salt and pepper.
Serve in torillas along with assorted toppings.

Happy New Year! This week it's supposed to be cold here, so here is one of my favorite cold weather chili recipes. This is a great recipe for using leftover chicken, turkey or rabbit.

White Bean Chili
  • 3/4 pound boneless skinless chicken breasts, cubed  (or 2 cups cooked meat)
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 medium onion, chopped
  • 2 4oz. cans of mild green chili peppers, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons dried oregano
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 cans (15 ounces each) white kidney or cannellini beans, rinsed and drained, divided
  • 3 cups chicken broth, divided
  • 1-1/2 cups (6 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
  • Sour cream and minced fresh cilantro, optional
Directions
  • Sprinkle chicken with salt and pepper. In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the chicken, onion, jalapeno, oregano and cumin in oil for 3-4 minutes or until chicken is browned and vegetables are crisp-tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Note: if using leftover/precooked meat, omit the salt in this step; saute the veggies and add the cooked meat for the last couple minutes)
  • Transfer to a 3-qt. slow cooker. In a small bowl, mash 1 cup of beans; add 1/2 cup broth and stir until blended. Add to the slow cooker with the remaining beans and broth. Cover and cook on low for 3 to 3-1/2 hours or until heated through.
  • Stir before serving. Sprinkle with cheese. Garnish with sour cream and cilantro if desired. Yield: 6 servings.
