SWEET PORK ENCHILADAS

Another Pinterest find. These were super yummy. Dan loves sweet meats like this one. The enchiladas were good but I loved the pork so much I would probably just make the pork and eat them as soft tacos or Café Rio salad style.

 - 3 TBS butter
 - 4 TBS flour
 - 1 1/2 c chicken broth (or 1 1/2 c water plus 2 tsp bouillon)
 - 1 3/4 c (one 10oz can) red enchilada sauce (mild or medium)
 - 3/4 tsp cumin
 - 1/2 tsp onion salt
 - 2 TBS brown sugar
 - 2-3 c shredded sweet pork  Copycat Cafe Rio Sweet Pork recipe HERE!
 - 4-8 flour tortillas
 - 1-2 c shredded cheese
 - 1/2 c chopped cilantro

Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400
2. In a medium sauce pan melt butter over medium heat. Whisk in flour. Add chicken broth and whisk until smooth. Stir in enchilada sauce, cumin, salt, and brown sugar. Cook about 5 minutes until thick and all ingredients are well combines. Remove from heat. Pour 1/2 c sauce into the bottom of a large baking dish.
3. Fill each tortilla with about 1/4 to 1/3 c shredded pork. Top with shredded cheese and chopped cilantro. Roll tortillas and place end-side down side by side into prepared baking dish. Pour 1 c of the sauce over enchiladas. Top with additional cheese to taste. Bake 15 mins or until cheese is melty and begins to brown slightly. Serve hot with additional cheese, cilantro, and sauce if desired.
