Ingredients

Directions

  1. Heat the oven to 325°F. Set a rack in the center position.
  2. Finely dice the sun-dried hot chiles. Toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat with the chili powder, cumin, salt, oregano, cayenne, and black pepper until fragrant, 3–5 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to cool slightly.
  3. Cut the pork shoulder into 3-inch chunks if not already done. Toss well with the toasted spice mixture and place in a Dutch oven.
  4. Add about one-third of the salsa verde, all of the chicken broth, the smashed garlic, and the quartered onion. Bring to a gentle simmer on the stovetop, cover, and transfer to the oven. Braise until the pork is very tender, 2 to 2½ hours.
  5. Lift the pork out to a bowl, discard any excess fat, and shred with two forks. Increase the oven temperature to 350°F.
  6. Whisk the remaining salsa verde into the sour cream to make the sauce. Spread about 1/2 cup of sauce over the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
  7. Wrap the corn tortillas in a damp paper towel and microwave until pliable, about 40 seconds.
  8. Working one tortilla at a time, lightly coat with a little sauce, add some shredded pork and a handful of cheese, roll up, and place seam-side down in the baking dish.
  9. Pour the remaining sauce over the enchiladas and sprinkle with the remaining cheese. Bake at 350°F until bubbling and lightly golden, about 30 minutes. Let rest 5–10 minutes before serving.
