Slow Cooker Chili Lime Pork Loin with Veggies & Spanish Rice

Servings: 6
Time: 4-8 hrs (slow cooker time)


INGREDIENTS:

2 lbs pork loin
2 tbsp olive oil
1/4 cup lime juice
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 1/2 tsp chili powder
1 tsp cumin
1 tbsp honey
1/4 cup rice wine vinegar or apple cider vinegar
1 yellow onion
1 red onion
3 bell peppers of any color
2 packages Spanish style rice


INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Combine olive oil, lime juice, soy sauce, chili powder, cumin, honey, and vinegar into a freezer bag and mix to combine. Place pork loin into freezer bag and make sure it's covered in sauce mixture.
  2. Marinade overnight. Or at least 30 minutes if you forgot to do this last night.
  3. Chop onion and bell pepper into wedges.
  4. Pour entire contents of freezer bag into a slow cooker with onion & peppers.
  5. Cook on high for 4 hours or low for 6-8 hours. Temperature should be between 137 to 140 degrees.
    1. There is also the option to grill the pork loin and saute veggies - see original recipe if this is your preference!
  6. Prepare Spanish style rice according to packaging.
  7. Slice pork loin and serve alongside rice and veggies.

TID BITS:

  • The original recipe is slightly different because it is based around grilling your pork loin. If you'd rather grill than slow cook see the original recipe - i'll probably do that variation on here at some point so Josh can be happy using his grill :)
  • You could also sub or add in more veggies to the slow cooker such as broccoli or cauliflower if you prefer!
  • If you don't like really soft peppers - I would saute them separately and add when serving.
