Pressure Cooker Pork Chili Verde Recipes

MEXICAN PORK STEW

Steps:

• Heat a small saucepan and roast cumin seeds lightly until just toasty-looking, and then spread out onto a paper towel for them to cool.
• Put pork and all sauce ingredients into an Instant Pot, starting with the vegetables at the bottom.
• Grind the cumin in a mortar if you have one, although I used my trusty coffee grinder for this.
• Sprinkle the pork with the cumin and salt, mix it slightly.
• Close and cook on high for 30 minutes with natural release.
• Remove pork chunks carefully with tongs. The meat is falling apart at this stage so you have to be a little careful.
• Put in cilantro and fish sauce, and using an immersion blender, puree the veggies until there aren't any big chunks of veggies left.
• Put back the pork and enjoy!

PRESSURE COOKER PORK CHILI VERDE

Steps:

• Select saute setting on a 6-qt. electric pressure cooker and adjust for high heat; add oil. In batches, saute the pork, carrots, onion and garlic until browned. Return all items to the pressure cooker. Add the enchilada sauce, water, jalapenos and cilantro. Lock lid; close pressure-release valve. Adjust to pressure-cook on high for 30 minutes. Allow pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes, then quick-release any remaining pressure. Serve with rice and tortillas.

PRESSURE COOKER CHILI VERDE (GREEN PORK CHILI)

Steps:

• Spread the tomatillos, anaheim chiles, and jalapeno peppers skin side up on a rimmed baking sheet. Put the baking sheet 6 inches below a broiler set to high, and broil until the tomatillos and peppers are blackened in spots, about 5 minutes. Flip the tomatillos and broil until the tomatillos are browned on the other side and the skins of the peppers are blackened all over, about another five minutes. Remove the baking sheet from the oven and let the peppers cool for a few minutes, then peel the blackened skin from the peppers and discard. (A little leftover blackened skin is fine.) Pour the contents of the baking sheet into a blender or food processor, including as much of the liquid as possible. Add the cilantro and the teaspoon of Kosher salt, then blend until smooth, about 30 seconds.
• Mix the canned diced chiles and tomatillo salsa in a medium bowl.
• Sprinkle the pork with the 2 teaspoons kosher salt. Heat the oil in the pressure cooker pot over medium-high heat until shimmering. (Saute mode in an electric PC). Brown the pork in two to three batches - put pork cubes in the pot without crowding, and brown each batch of pork on one side, about 4 minutes. Transfer the pork to a bowl with a slotted spoon, leaving as much fat behind as possible.
• There will be extra fat in the pot from the pork; pour out the fat to get down to 1 tablespoon. Add the onions to the pot and sprinkle with ½ teaspoon of kosher salt. Saute the onions until softened and starting to brown around the edges, about 5 minutes, scraping often to release any browned pork bits from the bottom of the pot. Make a hole in the middle of the onions and add the garlic, cumin, coriander, and oregano. Cook until you smell the garlic and spices, about one minute, then stir into the onions.
• Stir the chicken stock, salsa verde, pork, and any pork juices in the bowl into the pot. Lock the lid and cook at high pressure for 30 minutes in an Instant Pot or other electric PC, or for 25 minutes in a stovetop PC. Let the pressure come down naturally, about 20 minutes.
• Stir in the lime juice. Taste and add more salt and pepper if it needs it. (Homemade salsa verde will need more salt; the quick version from cans probably does not - canned ingredients already have a lot of salt. Go by taste; If the chili tastes flat, it needs more salt.) Serve.

INSTANT POT PORK CHILE VERDE (PRESSURE COOKER RECIPE)

Steps:

• Place your roast in the bottom of the Instant Pot.
• Add all remaining ingredients on top of roast.
• Set Instant Pot to manual and cook on high pressure for 30 minutes. Let pressure do a natural release (it will take about 10-15 minutes).
• Remove the roast pieces from the Instant Pot and shred using two forks (it will literally fall apart).
• Add pork back into Instant Pot and mix with all the flavorful liquid.
• Serve on tortillas and topped with pico de gallo, fresh cilantro, shredded cheese, or your favorite toppings.

RAPIDO PORK CHILE VERDE

Steps:

• Sprinkle the pork with salt and pepper. Add the pork to a large pressure cooker over high heat and cook until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes. Remove the pork and add the Anaheim and poblano peppers, onions and garlic. Saute until translucent, and then return the pork back to the pot. Mix thoroughly, and then deglaze with the chicken stock, white wine and vinegar. Reduce for 5 minutes, and then add the water, cumin, oregano, bay leaf, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 tablespoon pepper.
• Grill the husked tomatillos over an open flame (or under a broiler) until lightly charred all over - this will give the finished chile a rich, smoky flavor. Set aside to cool, and then roughly chop and add to the pressure cooker. Tear up the hydrated pasilla chiles and add to the pressure cooker, along with the water used to rehydrate them.
• Place a lid on the pressure cooker and cook for 30 minutes. When done, release the pressure, remove the lid and thicken the mixture by whisking in the masa harina. Finish with a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Serve in bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro, crispy tortilla strips and cotija cheese.

INSTANT POT® CHILE VERDE

Steps:

• Turn on a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®), select Saute function, and add 1 tablespoon olive oil. Add tomatillos, jalapenos, and crushed garlic to the hot oil. Saute, flipping once or twice, until lightly browned, 6 to 7 minutes. (Remove garlic earlier if it browns sooner.)
• Transfer vegetables to the bowl of a food processor and puree with 2 cups chicken broth until smooth.
• Clean and dry the inner pot of the Instant Pot®. Select Saute function and heat remaining olive oil. Add pork, onion, bell pepper, oregano, cumin, salt, and pepper. Stir and saute, adding more oil if necessary, until pork is browned on all sides and vegetables are soft, 7 to 8 minutes. Cancel Saute function. Pour in remaining chicken broth and scrape the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon to loosen any browned bits. Stir in reserved tomatillo puree.
• Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 25 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure using the natural-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 10 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid. Stir in chopped cilantro.

PRESSURE COOKER CHILE VERDE

Steps:

• Put all ingredients in a pressure cooker.
• Lock lid and bring up to pressure on high heat, lower temperature and simmer at 15 psi for 40 minutes.

• Remove the lid and simmer until the liquid is reduced by about half.
• Serve with warm flour tortillas, grated cheese and sour cream.

PRESSURE COOKER CHILI VERDE

Steps:

• Seed and chop all your veggies. Put them in the pressure cooker and saute (this brings out the juices - if you don't do this you won't have enough liquid to come to pressure).
• While they are heating add all your spices. Then add the cubed meat. If your pork shoulder had a bone you can throw this in for flavor.
• Seal your pressure cooker, bring to pressure, and cook 25 minutes. Allow natural pressure release.
• Remove the meat and puree the veggies and juice either in a food processor or blender. Add the meat back inches Top with cilantro, a squeeze of lime juice, and cotija, and enjoy!
