Directions
1.
Coat the pork with the flour.
2.
Heat the oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat. Add the pork and cook in 2 batches until it's well browned, stirring often.
3.
Stir the pork, salsa, peppers and carrots in a 6-quart slow cooker.
4.
Cover and cook on HIGH for 4 to 5 hours or until the pork is fork-tender. Sprinkle with the cilantro and serve with the rice.
5.
Serving Suggestion: Serve with a yellow rice blend, for a change and add a tossed green salad. For dessert serve baked apples with cinnamon sugar topping.

Tip:
Braised dishes like this one are perfect for cooking less expensive cuts of meat. The long, slow cook time lets the flavors develop and tenderizes the meat.
