Ingredients

1 tbsp canola oil
1/2 lb boneless pork shoulder butt roast
1/2 lb fully cooked andouille sausage links
2 tomatoes
1 can (15 oz) hominy
1 cup minced fresh cilantro
1 onion
4 green onions
1 jalapeno pepper
2 cloves garlic
1 tbsp chili powder
1 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp cayenne pepper
1/2 tsp coarsely ground pepper
6 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
optional: corn tortillas

Steps

Set a 6-quart pressure cooker to sauté, heat the oil, and brown the pork on all sides.
Add the onion, garlic, jalapeno, tomatoes, chili powder, cumin, cayenne, and pepper, then cook for 3 minutes.
Pour in the chicken broth, add the hominy and sliced sausage, and stir well.
Seal the cooker and cook on high pressure for 15 minutes, then let the pressure release naturally for 10 minutes.
Open the cooker when the pressure drops, check that the pork reaches 145 F, and break it into bite-size pieces.
Cook sausage until it reaches 160 F inside.
Stir in the cilantro and green onions, then season with salt and pepper.
