One of Chef Maribel's favorite weekday meals, this dish is comfort on a plate featuring lean pork stewed with a bright tomatillo sauce and a small kick of serrano spice, and served with rice. If you love Chef Maribel's tomatillo enchiladas, this version of her tomatillo sauce is enhanced with the pork and paired with calabacitas, or Mexican squash, and corn.
This is a pretty solid weekly meal choice.
The only issue I have with this meal is the inconsistent meat portion. There’s about a 50/50 chance you’ll receive a ton of veg and 2 pieces of pork.

The pork was very fatty - had to remove large portion of fat from the meat before eating.
