Instructions
Creating Slow-Cooker Peach Pork Picante is easy when you follow these simple steps:
1. Sear the Pork (Optional): If desired, heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Sear the pork for 2-3 minutes on each side until browned. This step enhances the flavor but is not necessary.
2. Prepare the Slow Cooker: Place the chopped onion and minced garlic in the bottom of the slow cooker.
3. Add the Pork: Place the pork tenderloin on top of the onions and garlic.
4. Mix the Sauce: In a bowl, combine the sliced peaches, picante sauce, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
5. Pour Over Pork: Pour the peach and picante mixture over the pork in the slow cooker, ensuring it’s evenly coated.
6. Cook: Cover the slow cooker and set it to low for 6 to 8 hours or high for 3 to 4 hours, until the pork is tender and easily shredded.
7. Shred the Pork: Once cooked, remove the pork from the slow cooker and shred it using two forks. Return the shredded pork to the sauce and mix well.
8. Garnish: Serve the dish hot, garnished with fresh cilantro if desired.
