Categories     Pork

Time 2h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 lb boneless pork shoulder, trimmed of fat and cut into 3/4 inch cubes
1 (28 ounce) can tomatoes
2 medium onions, chopped
1 1/2 cups celery, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon dry oregano
1/2 teaspoon rubbed sage
2 dried bay leaves
1 large green bell pepper (about 8 oz)
2 anaheim chilies
2 poblano peppers, seeded and chopped (3 to 4 oz. total)
4 cups cooked rice
fresh cilantro stem

Steps:

  • Place pork in a wide nonstick frying pan.
  • Drain about 1/2 cup liquid from tomatoes into pan. Bring to a boil over high heat; then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Uncover pan; add onions, celery, oregano, and sage.
  • Cook over high heat, stirring often, until liquid has evaporated and drippings are browned (8 to 10 minutes).
  • Add bay leaves. Cut up tomatoes then add tomatoes and their remaining liquid and stir to scrape browned bits free.
  • Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 30 more minutes.
  • Stir in bell pepper and chilies; cover and continue to cook stirring occasionally until pork is very tender when pierced (about 15 more minutes).
  • If chili is too thin, uncover and simmer until it's as thick as you like.
  • Skim and discard fat, if necessary.
  • To serve, spoon chili over rice and garnish with cilantro sprigs.

I'm not a big fan of tomatillos, but I really enjoyed this recipe. The tomatillos add a nice tartness to the sauce.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out great. The only thing I would change is to add a bit more salt to the sauce.
