CHILE VERDE CON CERDO (GREEN CHILI WITH PORK)



Chile Verde Con Cerdo (Green Chili With Pork) image

I have been working on this recipe for a number of years now and it does tend to change now and then. I promise you that any changes I make to it only makes it better. Try it over bean and beef or breakfast burritos, chimichangas or just eat it as a stew with warm tortillas. I make a huge pot of this so I can freeze some for later. Can be transfered to the crock pot for all day simmering on low. Adjust chilies, jalapeños and spices, tasting as you cook. I have never measured before when making this so please let me know if something doesn't work. Take liberties with this recipe to suit your own tastes. I won't mind in the least. It is what I would do if this recipe was posted by you. Pork can be left out for our vegetarian friends. 2/21/13..I am raising 3 young grandsons (1-5) now and find time to be a premium commodity. Being a purist is not affordable at the moment. Try a large can of green enchilada sauce instead of tomatillos if you find yourself short of time and energy.

Time 9h

Yield 15 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 -3 lbs pork roast (pre-diced pork works well for a faster preparation. Just brown with onions)
2 tablespoons lard or 2 tablespoons bacon grease
1 large chopped onion (not traditional) (optional)
1 head minced garlic (taste great, but also helps prevent heart burn)
6 tablespoons flour
1 (15 ounce) can tomatoes, drained
2 cups diced green chilies (I use Big Jims, roasted, peeled and frozen by the bushel every fall)
2 cups diced tomatillos (or substitute with your favorite salsa verde)
2 -4 teaspoons jalapenos (optional)
5 cups water (broth is not traditional, but I like the flavor better) or 5 cups chicken broth (broth is not traditional, but I like the flavor better)
1 tablespoon ground chili powder (or to taste) (optional)
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons cumin (to taste)
2 teaspoons oregano

Steps:

  • Simmer roast in a large pan until meat is tender and removes from the bone easily. (You can also use diced pork, or pork cube steaks (cut to bite size pieces), browned in the pot with the onion and garlic before adding the rest of the ingredients).
  • Cool meat enough to handle.
  • Cube cooked pork into bite size pieces.
  • Process 1/2 of the green chilies and tomatillos until smooth.
  • In the same large pan, melt the lard or bacon grease (or heat oil).
  • Add onions and garlic; sauté until tender but not brown.
  • Stir flour into the onion, garlic and fat until flour absorbs the oil or fat.
  • Add broth or water.
  • Cook and stir until mixture comes to boil and is slightly thickened.
  • Add cubed meat, drained tomatoes (if desired), chopped tomatillos, chopped green chilies, processed tomatillos and chilies, and jalapeños (if desired; I recommend tasting first).
  • Add the spices a little at a time until you get the taste you like, bringing to a simmer before each addition.
  • Simmer for at least 1 hour (longer if you can afford the time), stirring occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  • If you want more of a stew type chili, add cubed potatoes 20 minutes before serving; serve with warm tortillas.
  • Serve over burritos and garnish with cheese, lettuce, tomatoes and sour cream.
  • Leave pork out for a vegetarian green chili sauce.

PORK CHILI VERDE (GREEN PORK CHILI)



Pork Chili Verde (Green Pork Chili) image

This chili verde was one of the first recipes I ever learned. It comes out great even if you don't brown the meat, but I think doing so always adds extra flavor so I usually do it.

Time 2h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 pounds boneless pork shoulder, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 yellow onion, diced
2 teaspoons kosher salt, or to taste, divided
2 teaspoons dried oregano
2 teaspoons ground cumin
½ teaspoon ground coriander
¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
10 fresh tomatillos
3 jalapeno chile peppers, seeded
1 poblano chile pepper, seeded
6 cloves peeled garlic
½ cup packed cilantro leaves
1 bay leaf
2 ½ cups chicken stock, or as needed
1 ½ pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, quartered
freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup sour cream
pickled red onions (optional)
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Heat vegetable oil in a pot over high heat until it's nearly smoking. Add pork shoulder cubes in a single layer. Let sear until brown on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Mix and turn pieces over and brown on the other side, 4 to 5 minutes. Add onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring until onions turn translucent, about 4 minutes. Add oregano, cumin, coriander, and cayenne. Stir and cook until seasonings get fragrant, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low.
  • Remove paper husk from tomatillos and rinse. Cut into quarters. Place in blender with garlic, jalapeno pepper, poblano, cilantro, and chicken broth. Pulse on and off until pieces start to break down. Then blend until mixture has liquefied, about 30 seconds. Stir sauce into the meat mixture. Add 1 teaspoon salt and bay leaf. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low to maintain a slow but steady simmer for about 1 hour. Add potatoes, 1/2 teaspoon salt, black pepper. If mixture has reduced to where potatoes are not immersed, add more broth to cover. Simmer until meat and potatoes are tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Garnish individual servings with a dollop of sour cream, some pickled red onions (if desired), and cilantro leaves.
