PORK & GREEN CHILE CASSEROLE


I tried this recipe and it was not my favorite. I have since thought about it and made a few changes that should make it delicious.
3 T. EVOO
1 1/2 # Pork Loin chops cut into small bite size pieces & TENDERIZED
1/2 c. onion diced
1 1/2 c. uncooked instant brown rice
cream chicken soup
drained and rinsed black beans
1 can 14.5 ounce Southwest diced tomatoes
1 or 2 cans green chiles diced (depending upon the heat you like)
3 T. chunky salsa
1/4-1/2 c. chicken broth
1 T. cumin
1 T. chili powder
1 c. colby or Mexican cheese
Large handful of crushed tortilla chips
Heat EVOO in skillet
Brown pork loin & onion
Drain fat
Add all other ingredients and bring to a boil
Lower heat and simmer while stirring occasionally until rice is tender
Pour into 13x9 pam sprayed casserole dish
Top with cheese
Top with crushed chips
Heat in 400 deg oven for 15 minutes
BEST if served immediately
NOTE-I think this also would be nice without putting into casserole dish but serving in tortilla bowl & topped with cheese or sour cream.
