Directions

  1. Sprinkle pork with salt and black pepper. Cook bacon in a large Dutch oven over medium heat until crisp and well browned, transfer to paper towel-lined plate, reserving 1/4 cup drippings in pot.

  2. Brown pork pieces in bacon drippings over medium-high heat, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Work in batches, transfer browned pieces to a plate as they brown. Transfer all pieces back to pot, along with accumulated juices. Stir in onion, serrano pepper, broth, and tomato sauce. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low or low to maintain a low simmer. Simmer, covered, 1 hour.

  3. Stir in beans and cactus, simmer, uncovered, until heated through, 20 minutes more. Stir in bacon. Serve over rice and garnish with avocado and cilantro.
