MEXICAN MEAL PREP FOR WEIGHT LOSS: PUERCO CON RAJAS EN SALSA ROJA 🇲🇽
25 mins prepServes 4
This is one of my favorite dishes and it requires simple ingredients! It’s so low calorie you can add toppings or a side of choice! I love to add low calorie tortillas, non fat Greek yogurt, or some queso fresco!
1. Roast 4 tomatoes, jalapeño, 2 garlic cloves, 1/4 of the onion, and poblano peppers using your preferred method. (Air fry at 390° F for 10 minutes).
2. Put poblano peppers in a bag to “sweat” for 10 minutes. Remove seeds, skin, and stem. Slice and put to the side.
3. Once done, blend the rest of the boiled vegetables with low sodium chicken bouillon, 1/2 cup water, and handful of cilantro. Put to the side.
4. Chop the other 1/4 of onion, zucchini, pork tenderloin, and drain corn.
5. In a greased pan, cook the pork for 10 minutes on high heat. Season with salt, pepper, and 2 minced garlic cloves. Remove the liquid as needed.
6. Add in the onions and cook 4 minutes.
7. Add in the corn and cook for 3 minutes. At this point, the pork should be golden brown.
8. Bring down the heat to low medium and add in the zucchini and poblano peppers. Combine well.
9. Add in the salsa and chopped cilantro. Combine well.
10. Cover and cook for an additional 12-15 minutes or until zucchini is fork tender.
11. Divide into 4 servings. Each serving is 2 cups of guisado.
