Super Yummy Slow cooker Carnitas Ingredients: 1 tsp salt 2 tsp garlic powder 2 tsp ground cumin 1 tsp oregano 1tsp coriander 1-4lb boneless shoulder roast (pork loin works too) 2 bay leaves 2 cups chicken broth Directions: Mix together dry ingredients in a bowl. Coat the pork with the spice mix, place the bay leaves in the bottom of the slow cooker and place pork on top. Pour the broth around the sides to you dont rinse the spices from the pork. Cover and cook on low until pork shreds easily with a fork. When the pork us tender remove from cooker and shred with forks, use the cooking stock to moisten the meat as needed! Cilantro rice Ingredients: 1/2 cup ish fine chopped onion 1 Tbs minced garlic 1 lime, juiced 1/2 bunch cilantro, chopped 1 tsp salt 1 Tbs butter 3 cups reduced sodium chicken stock 3 cups uncooked instant rice Directions Put chicken stock in pot to boil, while waiting for boil, take all other ingredients except the rice and lime juice. Give it a good sauté, be careful not to burn the garlic. When stock is boiling put in sauté mixture and rice. Bring to boil then remove from heat, let set covered and fluff with fork after a 5ish minutes. Add lime juice and stir. I had avocado cubed, black beans, sautéed green pepper and onion chunks, fresh pico de gallo, sour cream and served on warm tortillas. I had never made either of these dishes and I was pleased with both. I made changes to the recipes I found to suit my tastes, please feel free to do the same, Im not a spicy food eater but you could easily spicy it up. Good luck and happy cooking!
