Slow Burn Green Chili Stew image

After waiting too long and not getting my whole order from a eatery here, I found that their raved about Green Chili Stew was no more than a flour and water concoction with GCs added. I vowed that I would figure out how to make a better version. This is the outcome. If you like a little kick in the back of your throat, this one's...

Time 4h50m

Number Of Ingredients 14

14 oz frozen green chilies
3 can(s) hatch green chilies (4 oz)
1 can(s) vegatable broth
1 1/2 c water to start, add as needed
4 carrots
2 small to med. sized potatoes
1 cube beef boullion
1 handful of corsely chopped garlic cloves
1 c dried onion pieces
1 Tbsp liquid smoke flavoring
1 ham bone or other meat bone you desire
1 lime, cut and juice (~1/4 cup)
1 tsp dried jalapenos
3/4 c bulgur wheat, uncooked (can be left out or substituted

Steps:

  • 1. In crock pot, toss in ham bone. I used one from my spiral cut ham that was cooked night before and frozen overnight.
  • 2. Dump in frozen green chilies straight from tub, if you can get it to pop out.
  • 3. Add dried onions. We love them, so 1 cup may seem like quite a bit. I promise that this will not be what you taste in the end. :)
  • 4. Add one and half cup of water and liquid smoke.
  • 5. Add the can of veg broth.
  • 6. Chop up the carrots. I didn't even peel these suckers. Sliced them up and tossed 'em in the pot.
  • 7. Clean up the 2 small- medium (depends on your taste, I didn't want them to take over with their consistency when blended). Chop potatoes into about 1/4" cubes. Not terribly important, will be blended. I didn't peel these either.
  • 8. Toss in cube of beef bouillon.
  • 9. Roll lime around a bit to make it juicy. Cut in half and squeeze into pot. Watch for seeds.
  • 10. Toss in the teaspoon of dried jalapenos, if you can handle them. The kind that I buy are kinda hot when simmered.
  • 11. Coarsely chop garlic cloves. We LOVE garlic, too, but use the amt makes you feel comfortable. I assure you that this also will not be what you taste in the end. :)
  • 12. I buy a large bag of peeled garlic cloves from Sam's. It's a lovely short-cut, but the garlic must be inspected for white spots when buying. Learned that the hard way.
  • 13. Set Crock pot for 3 hours at high. Mine has programming so I am able to also add 1 hour at low.
  • 14. Remove ham bone or other bones used.
  • 15. Scoop most of the hot stew into a blender or processor. Pulse until smooth. I left about a cup to two cups of stew in the crock so that there is a little chunky texture in the end. Add smooth mixture back to the crock pot. And set it for another couple hours.
  • 16. Add Bulgur Wheat or other grain.
  • 17. Dump in 3 cans of Hatch green chilies and stir pot up. I added an extra splash of water here.
  • 18. Allow pot to cook until grain is hydrated. This took mine less than half hour.
  • 19. I served the stew over Frito Corn Chips with cheese grated on top. To mine, I added the little bit of ham that cooked on the bone

This stew is delicious! The green chiles add a nice heat and the pork is so tender. I served it with some rice and it was the perfect meal for a weeknight dinner. I will definitely be making this again.

This stew was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I was able to tone it down by adding some sour cream. The flavor was still great and the stew was very filling. I would recommend this recipe to anyone who likes spicy food.
