Chili Lime Pork Ingredients

2 lbs of pork shoulder or pork butt
1/2 onion, chopped
2 cans (4 oz size) of green chilis
Juice of 2 limes (about 1/4 cup)
1/2 cup chicken broth
1 tbs chili powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
1 tsp cumin
1/2 tsp cayenne

Cilantro Lime Rice (Cauliflower)
1 head of cauliflower – “riced”
1/4 cup broth (from the crockpot)
1/2 tsp garlic powder
2 limes, plus zest
1/4 cup chopped cilantro – leaves only
Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions

Plug-in your crockpot and set it to low
Chop onion and add to crock pot
Pour in 1/2 cup of chicken broth
Next combine all of the pork spices in a small bowl
Use the spices as a rub and coat the pork roast completely on all sides
Juice the 2 limes, and add to crockpot
Add your pork roast to the crockpot
Pour the two cans of chilis over the roast
Cook for 6-8 hrs.

(Note: it will look like there isn’t much liquid in the pot. That’s OK. As the roast cooks it will add its juices to the liquid. You don’t want to dilute the lime flavor by adding too much chicken broth.)

Once the pork is done, start the cauliflower rice
Chop the cauliflower, and pulse until it resembles rice
Heat a burner to medium high, add 'riced' cauliflower, and about 1/4 cup broth from crock pot to the pan
Add 1/2 tsp of garlic powder
Stir occasionally as it cooks. Continue cooking for 10-12 mins
Taste the cauliflower rice for consistency
Once the rice is done, stir in the juice and zest of 2 limes, add cilantro, and salt and pepper to taste
Serve rice to the side or as a bed for the pork
Add vegetables such as grilled peppers if you like
