GREEN CHILE CHICKEN STEW
This stew will keep you warm and cozy on those cold winter days!! I got this recipe together after months of harassing my friends in New Mexico in search of the perfect green chile chicken stew. I make it at least once every month (I myself use a pressure cooker). Serve with warm flour tortillas. This recipe has a lot of chile peppers. Be sure to tone it down if you can't handle heat!

Steps:
- Put the chicken in a large pot over medium heat and add water to cover. Add the cumin, thyme, marjoram and basil. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium low and simmer for 2 1/2 hours (or pressure cook for 45 minutes). Remove the chicken from the pot and allow it to cool. Discard the bones and the skin and chop the chicken meat into bite-size pieces.
- Return the chicken to the pot and add the green chile peppers, habanero chile peppers, onion, garlic, carrots, celery, tomatoes and potatoes. Simmer for 30 minutes, or until the potatoes and carrots are tender (or pressure cook for 10 minutes). In a separate small bowl, mix the flour with some water and add to the soup, stirring well so the flour does not clump. Raise heat, bring just to a boil and remove from heat. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve.

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.

CROCK POT CHICKEN (OR BEEF OR PORK) GREEN CHILE STEW
I have not made this recipe yet, but it is tried and true by a friend of mine, on another board, Marsha Tbay, a very reliable source. What I like about this recipe is that it is so versatile, you can use chicken, beef or pork to vary it. Personally, I would brown the meat first in a little oil then continue with the recipe. The 8-10 hours is the time it is cooking in the crock pot.

Steps:
- Combine the chili powder, cumin, granulated garlic, cinnamon, salt and pepper in a small bowl and mix well. Sprinkle evenly over the chicken thighs and set aside.
- In a large Dutch oven (enameled cast iron preferred) over medium-high heat, add the oil. When hot, add the chicken thighs, not to crowd. Cook until nicely colored, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Repeat until all the chicken is golden brown. Remove to a plate to hold.
- Remove all but 3 to 4 tablespoons of the fat from the pan and, over medium-high heat, add the onions, Poblano peppers and red bell peppers. Cook until the onions are just starting to caramelize, 6 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 3 to 4 minutes more, stirring frequently.
- Add the beans to the pot and stir to combine. Add the tomatoes, Green Chile Sauce and the pumpkin and combine well. Season with salt and pepper, and then return the chicken to the pot with any accumulated juices. Nestle the chicken into the sauce, cover and bring to a simmer, adjusting the heat as needed. Simmer for 30 minutes. Taste for seasoning adjustments and serve with Green Chile Cilantro Rice with Pepitas

- Add the rice and stir to coat, Cook for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring constantly, to toast the rice a bit. Add the garlic, salt and pepper and stir to combine.
- Ladle in the chicken stock and green chile mix, about 1 cup at a time, stirring and allowing the rice to absorb the liquid. Do this 3 to 4 times, and then add the rest of the liquid. Stir, cover tightly and cook for 12 to 16 minutes, stirring twice during this time.
- Add the lime juice and cilantro and stir to combine. Place in serving bowl and garnish with the pepitas.

GREEN CHILE CHICKEN STEW
I am sure there are dozens of variations of this recipe, but it is so good one more won't hurt huh? My mother in law gave me a copy of this a couple of weeks ago. I don't know where she received it from. Really easy to fix and very easy to tweak to your own taste. Can be made on stove top or crock pot.

Steps:
- 1. Dice chicken, potatoes and onion about the same size. Carrots thin sliced. ( I used the pot I was cooking in) add evoo to pot and heat on medium, add chicken and cook until white. Add garlic to the pot and let cook about 2 minutes
- 2. Now throw everything else into the pot and let simmer until potatoes and carrots are tender ( yep that's how I done it)
- 3. If using the slow cooker/crock pot, just throw everything in and turn to low until potatoes are tender and chicken is done.
Tips:
- Choose the right chiles: Poblano and Anaheim chiles are mild and have a slightly sweet flavor, while serrano and jalapeño chiles are hotter. Choose chiles based on your desired spice level. You can roast the chiles in a 400°F oven for 15-20 minutes, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking. Once roasted, transfer the chiles to a paper bag and let them steam for 15 minutes. Peel and seed the chiles, then chop them.
- Make sure your chicken is cooked through: Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F to ensure it is safe to eat. You can easily check this by inserting a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the chicken.
- Don't be afraid to experiment with different vegetables: This recipe calls for potatoes, carrots, and corn, but you can easily add other vegetables such as bell peppers, zucchini, or green beans.
- Serve with your favorite toppings: This stew is delicious served with sour cream, avocado, cilantro, or tortilla chips.
Conclusion:
Green chile chicken stew is a classic dish that is easy to make and packed with flavor. It is a great way to warm up on a cold day, and it is also a healthy and affordable meal. Whether you are looking for a quick and easy weeknight dinner or a hearty dish to serve at a party, this green chile chicken stew is sure to please everyone at the table.
