Slow Cooker Guisado Verde image

An easy tomatillo and pork stew that is my boyfriend's favorite. Make it as spicy as you like by adding more or less jalapenos, or do not add any if you have a more tender palate.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 pounds boneless pork shoulder
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
3 cloves garlic, chopped
2 (12 ounce) cans tomatillos, drained and chopped

salt and pepper to taste
1 quart water
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese

This guisado verde was a little too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The pork was tender and the sauce was flavorful. Next time, I'll use a milder chili pepper.

I'm not usually a fan of guisados, but this one changed my mind. The flavors were complex and well-balanced, and the pork was fall-apart tender. I'll definitely be making this again.

I used this recipe as a base and added some of my own personal touches. I used a different type of chili pepper and added some more vegetables. It turned out amazing!
