Instructions
To make the Green Chile Sauce in the Instant Pot
Set Instant Pot to Saute. When heated, add bacon pieces and cook, stirring occasionally until cooked. Drain if needed and return to the pot.
Add all remaining ingredients for Green Chile Sauce EXCEPT cornstarch and 2 tablespoon water to the pot.
Stir ingredients to combine. Set on manual for 7 minutes. Allow to naturally release pressure (NPR) for about 5 minutes, then set to vent.
Remove IP lid and set to saute. Combine cornstarch and water in a small bowl. Mix until smooth, then add to the pot. Allow to come to a boil and cook for 3-4 minutes until mixture begins to thicken.
To assemble burritos:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Top each tortilla with 2 Tbsp. black beans and 3 T. cheddar cheese (you can use your best guess. More cheese is usually better!).
Using a slotted spoon, add pork mixture among tortillas.
Fold, burrito style, by folding the side closest to you forward. Bring the tortilla sides to the middle, then complete to make a burrito. Place burritos in a casserole dish.
Top with additional shredded cheese. Spoon green chili sauce over burritos reserving ½ cup for finished burritos. Cook in oven until cheese is melted and bubbly.
Top with remaining green chili when serving. Add a dollop of sour cream or other desired toppings to serve.
