Mexican Pork Stew image

I found this out of Ladies Home Journal and thought it looked good so decided to try it. I'm glad I did, it was delicious and a big hit at Super Bowl party. I followed the recipe pretty much exactly except I added 3 cans of chicken broth instead of 1. I like my stews on the thin side.

I'm not a fan of cilantro, so I omitted it from the recipe. The stew was still delicious.

This stew is a great way to use up leftover pork. I had some leftover pulled pork and it worked perfectly.

I added some chopped jalapenos to the stew and it gave it a nice kick. I also served it with sour cream and avocado.
