Ah, the humble potato: the ultimate blank culinary canvas. Luckily, EP chefs are potato Picassos, and this week, they’ve created a starchy masterpiece. These potatoes are (literally) bursting with Southwest-spiced pork, gooey cheese, pickled onion, velvety lime crema, and fresh scallion. The best part, though? The spuds come together in just 30 minutes! Asking price for this potato WAS $30,000, but this week we’re offering it as part of your EP meal choice. How can you resist?!

Instructions

Step 1
1

Adjust rack to top position (top and middle positions for 4 servings) and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce. Cut potatoes into 1⁄2-inch-thick wedges. Toss on a baking sheet with a large drizzle of oil, half the Southwest Spice Blend (you’ll use the rest later), salt, and pepper. (For 4, divide between 2 sheets; roast on top and middle racks.) Roast on top rack until browned and crispy, 20-25 minutes.

Meanwhile, halve, peel, and thinly slice onion. Zest and quarter lime. Peel and finely chop garlic. Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens.

Step 3
3

In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine 1⁄4 of the onion, juice from two lime wedges, 1⁄4 tsp sugar, and a pinch of salt. (For 4 servings, use four lime wedges and 1⁄2 tsp sugar.) Microwave until onion is softened, 1 minute; set aside. In a separate small bowl, combine sour cream, half the lime zest, a squeeze of lime juice, 2 tsp water (4 tsp for 4), and a pinch of garlic. Season with salt and pepper.

Heat a large drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add pork, scallion whites, and remaining onion. Season with remaining Southwest Spice Blend, salt, and pepper. Cook, breaking up meat into pieces, until pork is browned, 3-4 minutes (it’ll finish cooking later). Stir in stock concentrates, 1⁄4 cup water, and 2 TBSP ketchup. (For 4 servings, use 1⁄2 cup water and 4 TBSP ketchup.) Season generously with salt and pepper. Cook until pork is cooked through and mixture is saucy and combined, 1-2 minutes more.

Divide potato wedges between plates. Top with pork mixture and drizzle with lime crema. Garnish with cheese, scallion greens, pickled onion (draining first), and remaining lime zest to taste.

Ground Pork is fully cooked when internal temperature reaches 160°.
