GREEN CHILI STEW RECIPE WITH PORK

Steps:

• Slice the peppers in half lengthwise and set them onto a baking sheet. Bake them at 400 degrees F for 20 minutes, or until their skins blister up. Cool them slightly, then peel off the skins and discard them. Chop the roasted peppers and set them aside.
• While the peppers are roasting, toss the chopped pork shoulder with 2 tablespoon olive oil, chili powder, paprika, cumin and salt and pepper.
• Heat a large pot to medium heat. Add the pork shoulder and brown the pieces on each side, about 5 minutes. Scoop the browned pork shoulder into a bowl and set aside.
• In the same pot, add the onion and cook for 5 minutes, until softened. Add a bit more olive oil if needed.
• Add the garlic and cook another minutes, until you can smell the gorgeous garlic.
• Add the browned pork along with the stock, potatoes, carrots and chopped roasted peppers.
• Bring to a quick boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for at least 90 minutes. You can simmer longer to develop even more flavor.
• When ready to serve, remove from heat and swirl in the cilantro.
• Serve into bowls and garnish with extra cilantro. I like to toss on some fresh pepper slices and spicy chili flakes as well.
