#11 Carne Adovada Burrito Recipe

Preparation Directions

1. 1

   Prepare Carne Adovada

   In a large pot, soak the dried red chile pods in hot water for about 20 minutes until softened. Remove stems and seeds, then blend with garlic, cumin, coriander, salt, and pepper until smooth. In the same pot, add cubed pork shoulder and cover with the blended sauce. Simmer on low heat for 2-3 hours until meat is tender.

2. 2

   Make Calabacitas

   In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced onion, zucchini, and yellow squash. Sauté until tender, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste and set aside.

3. 3

   Assemble Burrito

   Once the carne adovada is ready, take a low-carb tortilla, fill it with a portion of the carne adovada, top with shredded cheese and roll it up tightly. Repeat with remaining tortillas.

4. 4

   Serve

   Place the rolled burritos on a plate, drizzle with green chile sauce, and serve alongside calabacitas.
