Pork Burritos

Basically, a burrito is a hand-held meal wrapped up neatly in a flour tortilla.

Recipe Ingredients:

2 teaspoons vegetable oil
1 onion, chopped
1 green pepper, chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 boneless pork chops, cut into 1/2-inch cubes
1 (4-ounce) can diced green chiles
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano, crushed
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
1 cup cooked rice
8 large flour tortillas, warmed
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese (4 ounces)
1 medium tomato, chopped
1/2 cup sour cream

Cooking Directions:

1. In a large skillet heat oil over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion, green pepper and garlic until tender but not brown. Add pork to skillet; cook and stir for 2 to 3 minutes or until brown. Stir in chiles, water, chili powder, oregano, cumin, salt and pepper. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 10 minutes or until pork is tender and just done. Stir in cooked rice; heat through.
