Time 1h30m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons Canola or Vegetable Oil
2 pound trimmed Pork Butt (, cut into 1-inch pieces)
1 large Red Onion (, peeled and finely chopped)
3 large Garlic Cloves (, peeled and diced)
6 cups Low-Sodium Chicken Stock
1 pound Red New Potatoes (, scrubbed (do not peel) and cut into ¾-inch pieces)

Time 1h40m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 pound tomatillos, husked
3 poblano peppers
1 jalapeno pepper, stemmed
1 serrano pepper, stemmed
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 pounds pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch cubes
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup vegetable oil
4 cloves garlic, minced
3 large carrots, chopped
2 yellow onions, chopped
1 tablespoon fresh oregano, minced
1 tablespoon ancho chile powder
2 1/2 cups vegetable stock, plus more as needed
2 bay leaves
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro, plus more for serving
1 lime, juiced, plus lime wedges, for serving
2 cups grated Cheddar
Sour cream, for serving
1 package corn or flour tortillas, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat the broiler and line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Put the tomatillos, poblanos, jalapeno and serrano pepper on the prepared baking sheet and toss with the olive oil. Place under the broiler and cook, carefully removing the baking sheet and flipping once halfway, until the peppers are blistered and charred all over, 5 to 6 minutes. Allow to cool while you prepare the pork.
  • Season the pork with 1 tablespoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Sprinkle over the flour and toss to coat. Heat the vegetable oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add half the pork and cook until browned on all sides, 3 to 4 minutes; remove to a plate. Repeat with the remaining pork.
  • Lower the heat to medium and stir in the garlic, carrots, onions, oregano and chile powder. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions have softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Meanwhile, peel and seed the poblanos. Chop the poblanos, jalapeno, serrano and tomatillos. Stir into the pot with the vegetables. Add the stock and bay leaves and return the seared pork. Bring to a boil, then lower to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook until the pork is extremely tender, about 1 hour. Check the pot occasionally, making sure there is enough liquid. Add a little more stock or water as needed.
  • Remove the bay leaves and stir in the cilantro and lime juice. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
  • If serving immediately, spoon into bowls and top with the grated cheese, sour cream and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges and warmed tortillas
  • To freeze, allow the stew to cool completely. Transfer to a deep 9-by-13-inch foil pan and wrap tightly with foil and plastic wrap. Put the grated cheese in a labeled quart-size resealable plastic bag. Put the stew, cheese and a pack of tortillas onto a baking sheet and freeze.
  • To serve, remove the meal kit from the freezer. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • Remove the foil and plastic wrap from the stew, then return the foil. Bake until heated through, 50 to 55 minutes. Let the tortillas and cheese thaw while the stew reheats, then remove the tortillas from the pack, wrap in foil and warm in the oven for the last 10 minutes while the stew is cooking.
  • Serve the stew in bowls with the fixins -- cheese, cilantro and tortillas alongside some sour cream and lime wedges.

Provided by Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 2h21m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 24

1 pound pork butt, trimmed of fat
2 yellow onions, quartered
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 bay leaves
2 teaspoons dried Mexican oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black peppercorns
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
Chile Verde, recipe follows
Corn Tortillas, accompaniment
Diced, seeded tomatoes, accompaniment
Sour cream, accompaniment
1 pound fresh mild green New Mexico chiles, or Anaheims
1 pound fresh hot green New Mexico (Big Jim) chiles, or anchos or poblanos
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup chopped white onion
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon minced, seeded jalapeno pepper
2 teaspoons dried Mexican oregano
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
3 cups chicken stock, or canned low-sodium chicken broth
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro

Steps:

  • Place pork butt, yellow onions, cumin, bay leaves, Mexican oregano, salt, black peppercorns and cayenne in a large saucepan and cover with water by 1-inch. Bring to a boil.
  • Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 45 minutes, skimming the surface to remove any scum that forms. Drain in a colander.
  • Shred the drained pork and return to the pot. Add the Chile Verde and stir well. Bring to a simmer over medium-low heat, and cook until heated through. Serve hot with tortillas and other desired condiments.
  • Roast the peppers by placing them on an open gas flame, turning them frequently with tongs until all sides are charred black, about 7 to 10 minutes. (Alternately, the peppers can be roasted under a broiler, or on top of a gas or charcoal grill.) Place the blackened peppers in a plastic or paper bag, and let rest until cool enough to handle, about 15 minutes. Peel the peppers, and remove the seeds and the stems. Chop the peppers and set aside.
  • In a large saucepan, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring, until tender, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic, jalapenos, oregano, salt, and cumin, and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the flour and cook, stirring, without allowing to color, for 2 minutes. Add the chopped peppers, and stir well to combine. Add the chicken stock, stir well, and bring to a boil. Lower the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 30 minutes.
  • Remove the chile verde from the heat, add the cilantro, and adjust seasoning, to taste.

PORK-AND-GREEN-CHILI STEW



Pork-and-Green-Chili Stew image

Provided by Mark Bittman

Categories     dinner, weekday, soups and stews, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds pork butt or shoulder, trimmed of excess fat and cut into small strips or chunks
1 medium onion, roughly chopped
Salt
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 14-ounce can diced tomatoes, with their liquid
2 cups roughly chopped roasted or broiled green chilies (see recipe)
Garlic powder, optional
Warm flour tortillas or rice for serving

Steps:

  • Put a large, deep skillet or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. When the skillet is hot, add the pork and cook, stirring occasionally to keep it from sticking, just until the meat juices evaporate, about 8 minutes (you're not looking to brown the pork here). Add the onion and a sprinkle of salt and cook, stirring occasionally, until it softens slightly, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Add the garlic, tomatoes and 1 cup water, not quite enough to cover the mixture. Bring to a boil, and let it boil vigorously for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the chilies, a sprinkle of salt and a sprinkle of garlic powder if you're using it. Reduce the heat so the mixture bubbles gently but steadily, and cover partly. Cook until most of the liquid evaporates, 6 to 10 minutes (there should be some juices left in the bottom of the pot, but the mixture shouldn't be soupy). Taste, add a little more salt if necessary and serve with warm flour tortillas or over rice.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork: Pork shoulder or pork loin are ideal for stews as they are tough cuts that become tender when cooked slowly.
  • Brown the meat: Browning the pork before adding it to the stew gives it a richer flavor and helps prevent the meat from becoming dry.
  • Use a variety of vegetables: To create a flavorful and colorful stew, use a variety of vegetables such as green chiles, bell peppers, onions, carrots, and corn.
  • Add spices and seasonings: To give the stew a Southwestern flavor, add spices such as chili powder, cumin, garlic, and oregano. You can also add a can of diced tomatoes with green chiles for extra flavor.
  • Simmer the stew slowly: The key to a great stew is to simmer it slowly over low heat. This allows the flavors to develop and the meat to become tender.
  • Serve with your favorite toppings: Serve the stew with your favorite toppings such as sour cream, grated cheese, avocado, or tortilla chips.
