Ingredients
|
|
1 small poblano chile
|
|
1 pound(s) lean pork loin, boneless pork roast, cut into 1-inch cubes
|
|
1/2 cup(s) canned chicken broth
|
|
1 large sweet potato(es), peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
|
|
1 small onion(s), chopped
|
|
14 1/2 oz canned diced tomatoes, fire-roasted, undrained
|
|

1/2 tsp ground cumin
|
|
|
1/2 tsp table salt
|
|
|
1/4 tsp black pepper
|
|
|
1 Tbsp fresh lime juice

Instructions
- Turn on a stovetop burner and place poblano chile over open flame (use tongs or a long-handled fork to keep fingers away from flame); carefully turn to char on all sides. Place poblano in a plastic or paper bag; close bag and set aside for 10 minutes to steam. Rub poblano skin off with your hands under cold running water; core, seed and dice poblano. (Note: If you have an electric range, broil poblano on high, 3 inches from flame, turning occasionally, until charred on all sides. Follow remaining directions above.)
- Place pork in a 5-quart slow cooker. Add broth, sweet potato, onion, poblano chile, tomatoes, cumin, salt and pepper; stir well. Cover and cook on LOW setting for 6 to 7 hours. Add lime juice and stir well. Yields about 1 1/2 cups per serving.
Notes- Serve with a spoonful of fat-free sour cream if desired.
