Ingredients
Enchiladas:
Method
In slow cooker, combine onion, garlic, chicken broth, strained tomatoes, ancho chili powder, brown sugar, chipotle powder, cumin, oregano, salt and pepper. Add pork, rolling in sauce to coat.Cover and cook on low until pork is tender, 8 to 10 hours.
Remove pork; discard fat, skin and bone. Shred meat with 2 forks; place in bowl and cover with foil to keep warm.
Using immersion blender or in stand blender in batches, purée sauce until smooth.
Whisk flour with 2 tbsp cold water; whisk lime juice into flour mixture. Whisk into slow cooker; cook, covered, on high until thickened slightly, about 15 minutes.
Stir 1 cup of the sauce into shredded pork. (Make-ahead: Let sauce and pork mixture cool for 30 minutes. Cover and refrigerate in airtight containers for up to 3 days. Rewarm separately and continue as directed.)
Enchiladas: Spread 1 cup of the sauce in 13- x 9-inch (3 L) baking dish. Divide pork mixture among tortillas and roll up each; place, seam side down, in single layer in dish. Pour remaining sauce over top. Sprinkle with cheese, tomato and green onions. Broil until cheese is melted, about 4 minutes.
