1 jalapeno pepper, stemmed
1 serrano pepper, stemmed
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch cubes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 large carrots, chopped

2 bay leaves
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for serving
1 lime, juiced, plus lime wedges, for serving
2 cups grated Cheddar
Sour cream, for serving
1 package corn or flour tortillas, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler and line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Put the tomatillos, poblanos, jalapeno and serrano pepper on the prepared baking sheet and toss with the olive oil. Place under the broiler and cook, carefully removing the baking sheet and flipping once halfway, until the peppers are blistered and charred all over, 5 to 6 minutes. Allow to cool while you prepare the pork.
  • Season the pork with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Sprinkle over the flour and toss to coat. Heat the vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add half the pork and cook until browned on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes; remove to a plate. Repeat with the remaining pork.
  • Lower the heat to medium and stir in the garlic, carrots, onions, oregano and chile powder. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions have softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, peel and seed the poblanos. Chop the poblanos, jalapeno, serrano and tomatillos. Stir into the pot with the vegetables. Add the stock and bay leaves and return the seared pork. Bring to a boil, then lower to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook until the pork is extremely tender, about 1 hour. Check the pot occasionally, making sure there is enough liquid. Add a little more stock or water as needed.
  • Remove the bay leaves and stir in the cilantro and lime juice. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
  • If serving immediately, spoon into bowls and top with the grated cheese, sour cream and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges and warmed tortillas
  • To freeze, allow the stew to cool completely. Transfer to a deep 9-by-13-inch foil pan and wrap tightly with foil and plastic wrap. Put the grated cheese in a labeled quart-size resealable plastic bag. Put the stew, cheese and a pack of tortillas onto a baking sheet and freeze.
  • To serve, remove the meal kit from the freezer. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Remove the foil and plastic wrap from the stew, then return the foil. Bake until heated through, 50 to 55 minutes. Let the tortillas and cheese thaw while the stew reheats, then remove the tortillas from the pack, wrap in foil and warm in the oven for the last 10 minutes while the stew is cooking.
  • Serve the stew in bowls with the fixins -- cheese, cilantro and tortillas alongside some sour cream and lime wedges.

GREEN CHILE AND TOMATILLO PORK STEW



Green Chile and Tomatillo Pork Stew image

This is a very versatile dish; it can be cooked in advance, in the oven or in a slow cooker. If you use a slow cooker, brown pork on stovetop first then transfer to slow cooker with the onion-pepper puree and seasonings. Allow 8-10 hours cook time, until pork is tender and falling apart.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Yield Serves 6 to 8

Number Of Ingredients 15

6 tomatillos, husked and quartered
3 jalapenos, split lengthwise, seeds and ribs removed if you don't want a lot of heat
2 cups chicken stock, plus more if needed
3 tablespoons grape seed oil
1 pork shoulder, picnic or fresh ham 3-5 lbs (depending how many you want to feed or how much you want to have left over)
3 medium white onions peeled and quartered
4 garlic cloves, peeled
3 tablespoons cumin
1 tablespoon salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 bunch fresh cilantro, divided into small sprigs
1 cup toasted and salted pepitas
1 block queso fresco, crumbled
1 bottle hot sauce
Corn Tortillas, warmed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Combine tomatillos, jalapenos, and 1/4 cup of chicken stock in a saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until the tomatillo begins to break down and get soft. Remove from heat.
  • Heat a large, oven-safe Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add grape seed oil. Add pork to hot pan and brown well on all sides. Remove pork from pan and pour off most of the oil and fat. Reserve some fat in pan.
  • Add tomatillo, jalapeno, onion, and garlic to food processor and puree until smooth. Return pork pan to medium heat and add puree to the reserved fat in pan. Add cumin and salt, and heat through.
  • Add the rest of chicken stock into pot with puree and stir to combine.
  • Nestle pork back into the pot of puree and stock. The pork should be covered about 3/4 of the way. Add more stock if needed. Cover and put in preheated oven for about 3-4 hours, until pork is tender and falling apart. Turn the pork at least once halfway through the cook time. Using two forks, shred the pork a bit and mix it through the sauce to get the flavor incorporated into all the pork. Taste and add salt and pepper if needed.
  • Serve pork stew right out of the pot and top with garnishes (cilantro, queso fresco, pepitas, and hot sauce). Serve heated corn tortillas on the side for dipping and scooping.

PORK & GREEN CHILE STEW, HIGH ALTITUDE



Pork & Green Chile Stew, High Altitude image

Traditional New Mexican stew, with succulent pork and fiery chiles. Stick to mild-medium green chiles to avoid spontaneous combustion! There are no potatoes (see notes below for adding separately), so extras freeze nicely. Recipe developed at 6500 ft elevation.

Categories     Stew

Time 2h35m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 lbs pork butt (aka Boston shoulder)
2 -3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large onion, quartered lengthwise and sliced coarse
2 garlic cloves, crushed and minced
5 1/2 cups water
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes, briefly drained
5 teaspoons chicken bouillon
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
3 -4 cups green chili peppers, roasted, peeled, seeded and chopped coarse, mild or medium heat, fresh or frozen (use the larger amount for store-bought frozen Bueno-type chile, it cooks down more than home-frozen)

Steps:

  • Trim fat from exterior of roast. Cut into slices 1 inch thick; trim and discard excess fat; you will lose about 3/4 lb. to trimmings. Cut trimmed pork into 1-inch cubes.
  • Heat oven to 250°F Move top oven rack to lower-middle position.
  • In 4-quart or larger Dutch oven, heat 2 tablespoons oil on high until shimmering.

  • Brown remaining pork, adding 1 tablespoon oil if needed; transfer to bowl.
  • Reduce heat to medium-high and add onion. Saute until onion begins to soften, about 4 minutes.
  • Add garlic and saute until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Add 2 cups water, return heat to high and deglaze pan.
  • Add the browned pork, tomatoes, bouillon, black pepper and remaining water.
  • Bring to a boil.
  • Cover Dutch oven and transfer to oven.
  • Bake 1 hour.
  • Add green chiles and bake for another hour.
  • If potatoes are desired, first separate out any Green Chile Stew that will be frozen. Then add cubed boiling potatoes (1 lb. potatoes for a half recipe) to remaining stew, transfer pan to stovetop and simmer until potatoes are tender.
  • Serve potato-free stew over cooked rice.
  • Freeze leftovers for up to 6 months.

GREEN CHILE PORK STEW



Green Chile Pork Stew image

This is one of those "stick-to-your-ribs" chilly-weather meals. I got this from a friend who is famous for her crockpot concoctions. Because of the nature of a crockpot, cooking time actually may range from 4 to 10 hours (depending on the cook's schedule).

Provided by Muffin Goddess

Categories     Stew

Time 10h15m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 1/2 lbs pork cutlets, cut into 1 inch cubes
1/4 cup flour
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon seasoned pepper (I use Jane's Crazy Mixed-Up Pepper)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground sage
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons vinegar (white or cider)
2 large onions, coarsely chopped
2 cans whole baby potatoes (not sure of exact weight, I usually end up using one large can of them)
2 cups tomatillo salsa (I either make my own, or I use La Victoria Green Chile enchilada sauce)
2 (3 1/2 ounce) cans diced green chilies
1 (15 ounce) can reduced-sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon brown sugar or 1 teaspoon honey

Steps:

  • Mix flour, cumin, pepper, salt, and sage in a gallon-size zipper bag.
  • Add meat cubes and shake to coat thoroughly.
  • Heat oil in a large skillet.
  • Brown pork in batches (meat will be crispier that way); remove from skillet when browned and place in the crock of a 4-6 quart slow cooker.
  • With the heat still on, add the vinegar to the skillet and quickly scrape up the browned bits left in the pan (the vinegar will reduce quite rapidly).
  • Add the vinegar reduction to the meat in the crock.
  • Add onions, potatoes, salsa, broth, and brown sugar to the crock and stir well.
  • Cook on low for 8-10 hours (or high for 4-5 hours, if you can't wait that long).
  • If you would like the stew to be a bit thicker, mash a few of the potatoes.
  • Serve with slabs of warm cornbread (such as my recipe for Mexican Cornbread).

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use a combination of lean and fatty pork. This will help to create a rich and flavorful stew.
  • If you don't have green chiles, you can use another type of chili pepper, such as poblano or serrano peppers.
  • Be sure to brown the pork well before adding the other ingredients. This will help to develop the flavor of the stew.
  • If you want a thicker stew, you can add a cornstarch slurry towards the end of the cooking time. To make a cornstarch slurry, mix equal parts cornstarch and water until smooth, then stir it into the stew until it reaches the desired consistency.
  • Serve the stew with your favorite sides, such as rice, mashed potatoes, or crusty bread.

Conclusion:

This hearty pork stew with green chiles is a delicious and comforting meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. So next time you're looking for a hearty and satisfying meal, give this pork stew a try!
