Spicy Marinated Pork and Eggs
Ingredients
  • 1 pound  boneless pork shoulder
  • 1 cup  bottled thick and chunky salsa
  • 1 tablespoon  vegetable oil
  • 1 large white onion, coarsely chopped
  • 2 pounds  potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
  • 2 fresh green chile peppers, chopped (1 cup)
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 6 eggs
  • 1 cup  shredded cheddar cheese (4 ounces)
  • Fresh cilantro
  • Sliced fresh jalapeno chile peppers (optional)
Directions

1. Trim fat from pork. Cut meat into 1-inch pieces. Place meat in a resealable plastic bag set in a shallow dish. Top with salsa. Seal bag; turn to coat. Marinate in refrigerator overnight.

2. Lightly grease an oval 3 1/2- to 4-quart slow cooker* with oil. Place onion in cooker. Add pork and marinade mixture, green chile peppers, and garlic. Cover; cook on low-heat setting for 6 to 7 hours or on high-heat setting for 3 to 3 1/2 hours.

3. Using the bottom of a ladle or serving spoon, make 6 indentations in the top of the mixture. Crack an egg into each indentation. If using low-heat setting, turn cooker to high-heat setting. Cover; cook 15 minutes more or until egg whites are set and yolks are thickened. Top with cheese, cilantro, and, if desired, jalapeno slices. Makes 6 servings.

From the Test Kitchen*
  • If you don't have an oval slow cooker, you can still make this recipe; the eggs may run together on the top.
