To make this dish, you will need the following ingredients:
For the Salsa Verde Pork Enchiladas:
- 1 pound pork shoulder, shredded
- 1 cup salsa verde
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup chopped cilantro
- 8-10 corn tortillas
- 1 cup shredded cheese
For the Mexican Rice:
- 1 cup long-grain white rice
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 can diced tomatoes
- 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
For the Beans:
- 1 can black beans, drained and rinsed
- 1/2 onion, chopped

To start, preheat your oven to 375°F. In a large bowl, mix together the shredded pork, salsa verde, sour cream, and cilantro. Warm the tortillas in the microwave or on a skillet until they are pliable. Spoon the pork mixture onto each tortilla and roll them up tightly. Place the enchiladas seam-side down in a baking dish and sprinkle with shredded cheese. Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
For the Mexican rice, heat the olive oil in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until softened. Add the rice, cumin, and chili powder and stir to coat. Add the diced tomatoes and chicken broth and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
For the beans, heat a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and sauté until softened. Add the black beans, cumin, salt, and pepper and stir to combine. Cook for 5-7 minutes, or until heated through.
