Craving a hearty and flavorful stew that packs a punch? Look no further than Chuy's Green Chile Stew. This authentic Tex-Mex dish is sure to tantalize your taste buds with its delightful blend of spices and tender chunks of pork. The key ingredient in this stew is the roasted green chiles, which impart a smoky and slightly spicy flavor that perfectly complements the savory pork. It comes with 3 various recipes. The first one is the original Chuy's Green Chile Stew which includes step-by-step instructions on preparing the pork, roasting the green chiles, and simmering all the ingredients together to create a flavorful and satisfying stew. The second recipe introduces a vegetarian version of the stew, catering to those who prefer a meatless option. Lastly, the third recipe offers a simplified version of the stew using canned pork and pre-roasted green chiles, making it a convenient and time-saving option for busy home cooks.
Here are our top 12 tried and tested recipes!
CHUY'S GREEN CHILE STEW
Your basic green chile stew. The most important ingredient is the green chiles themselves; for best taste, I highly recommend roasted Hatch green chiles. I got the inspiration for this recipe from my favorite Tex-Mex joint, Chuys. I think it tastes like a pretty close facsimile thereof. One thing that Chuy's sometimes does is roast the vegetables instead of simmering them. If you choose to go that route, don't simmer them in the stew or they'll become too soft.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in stock pot or dutch oven over medium-high heat.Sprinkle the flour over the oil and whisk to create a light roux, about 5 minutes.
- Add the tomatillos to the roux and saute for a few minutes.
- Add garlic and saute for 30 seconds or until garlic becomes fragrant. Slowly whisk in the chicken broth and combine well. Add the carrots and simmer for 20 minutes.
- If using chicken thighs: Add chicken thighs with the carrots. Skim off any fat which rises to the surface periodically while simmering ingredients.
- Add the remaining vegetables and simmer until the vegetables are almost tender, about 45 minutes to an hour.
- If using chicken thighs: Pull chicken thighs from stew and let cool on a cutting board. When chicken has cooled, pull meat off of bones and shred into bite-size pieces. If using rotisserie chicken: Pull meat off of bones; discard skin and shred chicken into bite-size pieces.
- Add chicken to stew and stir to combine. Taste for seasoning and add salt and pepper as needed, and cumin to taste. If you don't like cumin too much, you can always use less; same for salt and pepper.
- Stir in cilantro and green onions (if desired) and simmer for a few more minutes.
- A note about the chiles: Hatch green chiles are best, and the heat in the stew depends primarily on the heat of the chiles. If your chiles are mild and you prefer more heat, you can add cayenne as desired. If hatch chiles are unavailable, you can also use Anaheim chiles. Roast them yourself on the grill, under a broiler, or on your gas cooktop until the skins are charred. Wrap in plastic foil for a few minutes until skin has softened, then scrape charred skin off of chiles.
HEARTY GREEN CHILI STEW

Steps:
- Brown pork, chicken, or beef in oil. Sprinkle flour over the meat and add chopped garlic according to your taste. Add chicken bouillon, crushed tomatoes, potatoes, and Green Chile.

Steps:
- Start by peeling and cubing the potato into 1/2-inch diameter pieces and set aside.
- Next, in a saute pan on medium heat, cook the ground beef and lightly sprinkle with salt and pepper.
- While the beef is cooking, place 4 cups water in a stock pot with the potatoes and bring to a boil. Cook the potatoes until fork tender; do not cook until the potatoes mash.
- When all the rawness is cooked out of the beef, turn off the heat. Slowly add the flour while mixing into the beef in order to make a roux. Mix the flour into the beef completely until no dry flour remains. (Depending on the fat ratio of the beef, you may need to add more or less flour. This all depends on how thick you want your stew in texture.)
- Once your roux is complete, add to the stockpot with the cooked potatoes. The meat may be in large pieces, so with a large spoon, break up into desired size. Once the meat is fully broken down, add the green chiles, corn, green chili powder, 2 teaspoons salt and 2 teaspoons black pepper. Fully mix all the ingredients and place the stockpot back on the stove top. Bring up to temperature on medium heat. Once the soup is at proper serving temperature, serve in medium bowls and enjoy. Feel free to add cheese or sour cream if desired.
- Optional serving suggestions: grated cheese, sour cream.

GREEN CHILE CHICKEN STEW
Many agree the best green chiles are grown in the Hatch Valley in southern New Mexico, so it's great to make this delicious chicken stew in early fall when they're are available. (Get a friend to send you some, or order them online.) But you can also make it throughout the year using frozen or canned green chiles. Though pork, beef or lamb are more traditional for green chile stew, this chicken version is a bit lighter, quicker to cook and still packs a punch. It's not a dish for the faint of heart.

Tips:
- Prep all ingredients beforehand: Diced the veggies, minced the garlic, and cut the stew meat into bite-sized pieces. This will make the cooking process much smoother and faster.
- Don't overcrowd the pot: If you're using a small pot, cook the stew in batches to avoid overcrowding. Overcrowding can prevent the stew from cooking evenly and can make it watery.
- Use a Dutch oven or a large pot with a heavy bottom: This will help distribute heat evenly and prevent the stew from scorching.
- Brown the stew meat: Browning the stew meat before adding it to the pot will add flavor and depth to the stew.
- Use a variety of vegetables: This will give the stew a more complex flavor and texture. Some good vegetables to use include potatoes, carrots, celery, green beans, corn, and peas.
- Add spices and herbs to taste: Common spices and herbs used in green chile stew include cumin, chili powder, oregano, and cilantro.
- Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour: This will allow the flavors to meld and the stew to thicken.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for green chile stew include sour cream, shredded cheese, diced avocado, and chopped cilantro.
