Charlie's Green Chile Stew image

From NEW MEXICO magazine, 8/08 Charlie was Charles Elias, who ran Charlie's Front and Back Door in Albuquerque. I love this stuff! I freeze it without the potatoes, as I dislike their change in texture when thawed, add raw cut-up potatoes to it after thawing and heat until potatoes are tender. Serves 4 generously.

This stew was delicious! I made it for a potluck and it was a big hit. Everyone loved the flavor and the beef was so tender. I will definitely be making this again.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times and it's always a hit. The green chiles give it a nice spice and the beef is always tender. I like to serve it with cornbread or tortillas.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my stew turned out bland and watery. I followed the recipe exactly, but it just didn't have any flavor.

This stew was a bit too spicy for me, but my husband loved it. He said it was the best stew he's ever had.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but I really enjoyed this stew. The green chiles were not too spicy, and they added a nice flavor to the dish.

Easy to follow recipe. I didn't have any green chiles, so I used a can of diced tomatoes with green chilies. It was still delicious!

This stew was a hit with my family! The green chiles gave it a nice kick, and the beef was fall-apart tender. I made a few changes to the recipe: I used ground turkey instead of beef, and I added a can of black beans. It turned out great!
