Pork Green Chile Sauce
Method
Marinating the Pork
Prepare Marinade
In a bowl, combine pineapple juice, minced garlic, oregano, cumin, paprika, salt, black pepper, and olive oil. Mix well.
Marinate Pork
Cut the pork loin into small cubes. Add the pork to the marinade, ensuring all pieces are coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight.
Cooking the Pork
Making the Green Chile Sauce
Cook the Sauce
In a pot over medium heat, sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until soft. Add the diced pork, green chile peppers, chicken broth, cumin, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a simmer and cook for about 15-20 minutes.
Assembling the Burrito
Prepare the Filling
In a large bowl, combine the grilled chopped pork, cooked rice, and whole beans.
Fill the Tortillas
Lay a tortilla flat, add a generous portion of the pork mixture, spoon some green chile sauce over the top, and sprinkle with shredded Monterey Jack cheese.
Wrap the Burrito
Fold in the sides of the tortilla and then roll from the bottom up to enclose the filling. Repeat with remaining tortillas.
Serve
Serve the burritos warm, topped with additional green chile sauce and pico de gallo.
