Steps:

CHILI VERDE DE MI PAPA

Steps:

• Like Dad always did, you'll want to first open a beer and have a sip. Heat olive oil until it moves on its own. No smoking. Add one teaspoon chipotle (or two finely chopped chipotles), 1/2 teaspoon cayenne, onions and garlic. Cook until onions are translucent. Add pork loin and brown. As the loin browns, add some sea salt and about a teaspoon of black pepper (this is all about taste.) Disperse another teaspoon of chipotle on top of browning pork. Have a sip of tasty ale. Once browned - the pork, that is - add tomatoes, green chilies, a bit more cayenne, a little more salt and pepper and the beans. Without feeling too sad, pour in 1/2 bottle of beer, turn down the heat to simmer, and let it stew for an hour our so. Drink the rest of your ale and then finish off the half bottle from the chili. Serve with warmed flour tortillas and another cold beer.
