  • CILANTRO AND LIME SOURCREAM:
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 1 1/2 -to 2 pounds pork butt roast (you can use pork sirloin because it's lean)
  • 3 to 4 fire roasted poblano peppers* or 1to 7 ounces can whole green chiles
  • NOTE: Or, use a quality brand of Chili Verde Sauce, about 1 1/2 cups or 12-ounces.
  • 5 to 6 cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (I used non fat)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped
  • Juice of 1/2 a lime
  • 1 large onion, cut into rough chunks
  • Dry Rub (note, measurements are approximate; adjust to suit your taste)
  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano
  • 1 tablespoon cumin powder
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon Kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper, to taste
  • 2 cups chicken broth
  • DIPS:
  • Guacamole
  • Salsa
  • Cilantro and Lime Sour Cream
  • Additional Ingredients:
  • 12 (or more) corn tortillas
  • Shredded Mexican cotija cheese (or cheese of your choice)
  • 1 to 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • NOTE: I froze half of the shredded pork for a future meal because I had approximately 12 to 14 taquitos using just half of the mixture. You can make shredded pork tacos at another time, for a quick fix meal.
