RECIPE FOR BOLILLOS RECIPES

Steps:

• Place pork in a large bowl; add wine, garlic and seasonings. Turn to coat; cover and refrigerate overnight., Transfer pork mixture to a 5- or 6-qt. slow cooker; add onion and water. Cook, covered, on low 6-8 hours or until meat is tender. , Skim fat. Remove bay leaves. Shred meat with 2 forks. If desired, serve with a slotted spoon on bolillos.

Steps:

• Poke the sausages all over with a fork, and place in a large lidded skillet with 1-2 Tsp extra virgin olive oil and 1 cup white wine or water, turn on heat to medium, and partially cover.
• When pan begins to boil, turn sausages, and continue to simmer, turning several more times.
• When liquid has evaporated, uncover, and continue cooking until sausages have browned to your taste.
• Remove sausages from pan, and set on paper towels to drain.
• Drain all grease from skillet, but do not wash or rinse it.
• Add 1-2 Tsp more extra virgin olive oil to pan, and place on medium heat.
• Add onions, and garlic, and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Moisture from the onions should be enough to deglaze the pan, but you can add 1/4 cup white wine or water, if desired, to help with the job.
• Stir the onions, scraping the bottom to pick up and dissolve browned bits from the sausage.
• Continue cooking and tossing until onions are almost translucent.
• Add peppers, and toss to combine with onions.
• Turn up heat to medium-high, and continue to toss and cook until peppers are crisp-tender or to your taste.
• Bury the sausage in the vegetables to reheat if necessary.
• I usually serve on crusty French rolls or Bolillos, crusty Mexican rolls that have been heated in the oven.
• Either one is better than your typical hoagie roll.
• I split the warmed roll, brush on a little marinara sauce, split the sausages lengthwise, and pile on the onions and peppers.
• If desired, line the roll with a slice of provolone and/or place one on top of the sausage and veggies.
