New Mexico-Style Green Chili & Pork Stew with Potatoes

Recipe By: CIA

Serving Size : 5

Categories : Pork Veal Dishes

1 tablespoon vegetable oil

1 1/2 pounds boneless lean pork -- cut in 1/2" cubes

1 large onions -- diced

2 1/2 cloves garlic -- minced

2 cups chicken stock

2 tablespoons tomato puree

3 to 9 poblano chilis, roasted, seeded & peeled -- cut in 1/2" pieces

1 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin

1 teaspoon ground Mexican oregano

1 tablespoon mild chili powder

1 whole jalapeno chili pepper -- seeded and minced

1 tablespoon green Tabasco sauce

1/2 teaspoon white vinegar

1 teaspoon salt

3 red potatoes -- cut in 1/2" pieces

Heat the 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat. Add the pork and sauté until gray. Remove from the pan and place in a 4 qt. heavy saucepan. Sauté the onions and garlic in the same pan, using a little more oil if needed. Add the cooked onions and garlic, stock, tomato puree, poblanos, cumin, oregano, and chili powder. Bring the mixture to a boil, reduce the heat to a simmer, and cook, covered, for 1 hour, stirring occasionally. Add the jalapenos, Tabasco, vinegar, salt, and potatoes. Cook, covered, at a simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender.

Serve this spicy chili stew in bowls with warm, buttered flour tortillas and grated Monterey jack cheese.

 
Oh man, Flashback time: we're walking throughTaos plaza, it's snowing and we pop into

a diner for a bowl of green chile stew and hot Indian bread.

Madre mia....I thought the skin would peel right off the roof of my mouth. New Mexican's take their fresh roasted chiles seriously and apparently wimps were not included with this batch. We loved every drop of it!

I hope this recipe is as good as the memory was. Thanks orchid!

 
It is Marilyn, serve it with these Rec:Tangy Orange BBQ Shrimp & Bacon and Jicama & Red Pepper>>>

These just go so well together and makes a wonderful meal. I don't find the pablanos here to be hot at all here so I use 5 of them.

Tangy Orange B-B-Q Shrimp W/Bacon
Recipe By: CIA Cookbook

Serving Size: 10 Preparation
Categories: Appetizers Fish And Seafood

Tangy Orange B-B-Q Sauce:
3/4 Cup Frozen Orange Juice Concentrate -- (6 Oz. Can)
3/4 Cup Chili Sauce
1/3 Cup Molasses
3 Tablespoons Soy Sauce
1 Tablespoon Brown Mustard
1 Clove Garlic -- Mashed
2 Tablespoons Fresh Lemon Juice
1/4 Cup Chicken Stock
1 Teaspoon Tabasco Sauce
1 Teaspoon Salt
2 Teaspoons Worcestershire Sauce

10 Strips Smoked Bacon
20 Extra-Large Shrimp -- Peeled and Deveined

Combine all the ingredients (up to bacon and shrimp) in a medium saucepan and mix well. Cover and simmer gently for 20 minutes. Stir occasionally, being careful not to scorch. Cool, cover and refrigerate.
In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon until the fat is translucent. Drain on paper towels and cut each strip in half crosswise. Wrap each shrimp with one piece of the bacon and secure with a toothpick.
Baste with the B-B-Q sauce and broil or grill until the shrimp are cooked, basting occasionally with more sauce.

NOTES: This is a wonderful thick, zesty sauce and makes 2 cups. It can also be used as a basting sauce for ribs, chicken, lamb and pork or veal chops. It can be stored in the refrigerator for 1 week and frozen in smaller packages for up to 6 months

We have a New Mexican-style restaurant here that we love, and their...

...green chile stew is legendary.

I LOVE IT when an authentic ethnic recipe, different from my own ethnicity, becomes a comfort food staple.

Thanks for the Shrimp recipe Orchid. As my young son says, when I read the recipe I 'started juicing for it'!
