GREEN CHILE STEW



Green Chile Stew image

Provided by Leona Tiede

Categories     Soup/Stew     Beef     Pork     Potato     Tomato     Vegetable     Stew

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

5 medium potatoes, peeled and diced 1/2-inch pieces
3 carrots, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch pieces
3 stalks celery cut into 1/4-inch pieces
1/2 yellow onion, chopped
2 tomatoes, chopped
2 teaspoons meat seasoning (1/4 teaspoon paprika, 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper, 1 teaspoon ground celery seed, 1/2 teaspoon salt)
1/2 cup prepared basic green chile
1 pound beef stew meat or 1 pound pork butt
Water to cover
Salt and pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Add stew meat to a large casserole and cover with water. Bring to a boil and remove any film or residue from the surface. Turn down to a simmer and cook for ten minutes. Add onion, tomato, celery, meat seasoning, and basic green chile and continue cooking over low heat, just above a simmer. When meat begins to become fork tender (about 1 hour) add carrots and continue cooking for 15 minutes. Just before serving, add potatoes, adjust seasoning, and serve when potatoes are cooked through.

Tips:

  • Choose the right chiles: For a milder stew, use mild green chiles like Anaheim or Poblano peppers. For a spicier stew, use hotter chiles like Serrano or Habanero peppers.
  • Roast the chiles: Roasting the chiles brings out their flavor and makes them easier to peel.
  • Peel and seed the chiles: Wear gloves when handling hot chiles to avoid skin irritation. Cut the tops off the chiles and slice them in half lengthwise. Remove the seeds and ribs.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: Caldillo is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Common vegetables used in caldillo include potatoes, carrots, zucchini, and corn.
  • Add meat or beans: Caldillo can be made with or without meat. If you're using meat, brown it in a skillet before adding it to the stew. Beans are also a great addition to caldillo.
  • Simmer the stew: Caldillo is a slow-cooked stew. Bring the stew to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for at least 30 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender.
  • Season to taste: Add salt, pepper, and other seasonings to taste.

Conclusion:

Caldillo is a delicious and versatile stew that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its combination of roasted green chiles, tender vegetables, and flavorful broth, caldillo is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
