Spicy Pork Burritos

INGREDIENTS
2-3 pounds pork, cut in chunks
5 garlic cloves, minced
½ onion, chopped
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon pepper
½ teaspoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon corn starch
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 ½ cups Verde salsa
½ cup salsa
pepper jack cheese, shredded
flour tortillas

DIRECTIONS
1. In a large skillet, add vegetable oil, onion, and garlic. Saute on medium high heat until onions are translucent. Add pork. Season with salt, pepper, and cumin and cook until the pork is no longer pink, about 10 minutes. Drain any excess fat.
2. Stir in both salsas and corn starch. Cook on low heat about 10 minutes.
3. On a cookie sheet, place meat mixture and cheese in the center of a flour tortilla. Reserve the extra sauce from the meat mixture. Fold in ends of the tortilla and then sides forming a burrito. Broil in oven for 2-3 minutes until the tortilla turns light brown. Top burritos with extra sauce and cheese and place back in oven for another minute to let the cheese melt.
4. Serve topped with sour cream or guacamole.

Quick and easy and my husband loved it. The only thing I changed is I had made non-refried beans the day before so I added this to the mixture. I am really starting to get into this cooking thing thanks for the delish simple recipe. I don't think I had ever cooked pork before and my husband loved it. I made a few extra, wrapped them up and froze them, hopefully they will keep well.
