1. 1

   Mix cumin, coriander, cilantro, garlic herb seasoning, Italian seasoning, cayenne pepper, and fennel in a bowl to make seasoning mixture. Rub 2/3 of the seasoning mixture over pork loin.

2. 2

   Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a stovetop pressure cooker over medium heat. Add pork loin; cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate.

3. 3

   Pour 2 cups chicken broth and rose wine into the pressure cooker. Bring to a boil, scraping the bottom to loosen browned bits. Return pork loin to the cooker. Cover and bring to high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions. Reduce heat to low and cook, about 1 hour.

   Roast until peppers are blackened and blistered, 5 to 8 minutes. Place in a bowl and seal with plastic wrap. Allow peppers to cool, about 20 minutes. Stem, peel, and seed the peppers; dice.

7. 7

   Heat a dry skillet over medium-high heat. Add some tomatillos in a single layer; cook, turning occasionally, until softened and skins are blistered, 5 to 10 minutes. Repeat with remaining tomatillos. Dice tomatillos.

8. 8

   Combine 1/2 of the tomatillos and 1/2 of the roasted peppers in a food processor; puree until smooth.
