PORK AND RED CHILI STEW

Steps:

• Wash the chili pods removing seeds. Please note that the heat of the chili is found in the seeds and ribs. You may leave in some of the seeds if you want a spicier dish. Place chili pods, sun dried tomatoes and 1 cup of broth in saucepan. Bring to a boil. Turn off heat, cover and allow to steep while browning the onions and meat.
• In a heavy skillet or Dutch Oven, cook bacon until crisp. With a slotted spoon, remove the bacon from fat and set aside to drain. Discard the fat, add in 1 tablespoon olive oi to pan and warm over medium heat. When warm add in chopped onion and garlic. Cook until onions begin to brown. Transfer to crock-pot.
• Cut the pork loin into 1 1/2 to 2 inch cubes. Mix together the flour, salt and pepper. Place pork in container with tight fighting lid, sprinkle with seasoned flour, cover and shake to lightly coat the meat.
• Add another tablespoon of oil to skillet and cook meat in small batches until lightly browned, adding in additional oil as needed. As meat is browned transfer to crock-pot with onions and garlic. De-glaze the pan with a small amount of broth.
• Place the chili pods and sun dried tomatoes in blender container. Add in salt, pepper to taste. Process until smooth adding remaining broth. Pour over meat in crock-pot, stir in ground cumin, oregano and bay leaves. Crumble bacon and stir into mixture. Cover and cook on low for 3 to 4 hours or until meat is fork tender.
• The last 45 to 60 minutes of cooking add in the package of Simply Potatoes and turn up to high. Stew will be thick. Continue to cook until potatoes are tender and cooked through.
• Serve with tortillas of choice or use filling to make burritos.

PORK AND CHILI STEW

Steps:

• Remove the stems and seeds of the dried Ancho, Guajillo, and Pasilla peppers. Remove the stems, but do not de-seed, the Arbol or Chipotle peppers (unless you want to cut down on the heat they give the stew).
• Toast the peppers in the oven to crisp briefly if needed, then grind the peppers to a medium-fine powder. I usually use a coffee grinder.
• Put the olive oil into the bottom of a crockpot. Add the ground chilis, garlic, cinnamon, oregano, cumin, salt, pork, and carrots. Add stock or water sufficient to cover the ingredients, then add the brown sugar.
• Cok for 2 hours on high. Then add the wine, and slowly add grits sufficient to thicken the gravy.
• Cook another 2 hours on low.
• Serve over rice. Fresh fruit makes a good accompaniment.

PORK AND GREEN CHILE STEW

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.

CARNE ADOVADA (RED CHILE AND PORK STEW)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large, heavy-bottomed, ovenproof pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic and cook, stirring, until onions are golden, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer onions and garlic to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
• In a large bowl, stir together flour, salt, cumin, and pepper. Add pork and toss to coat. Return pot to medium-high heat, add remaining 1 tablespoons oil, and, working in batches, lightly brown meat on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes per batch. Transfer meat to a separate bowl as you go.
• Return onions and garlic to pot. Sprinkle with ground chiles and cook, stirring, 2 minutes (mixture will be thick- I added some of the broth at this point to keep the chile from burning). Add the rest of the broth, stirring to loosen browned bits from bottom of pot. Whirl sauce in a blender until smooth. Return sauce to pot and add bay leaf and reserved pork (I also added the pork bone).
• 4. Cover pot, put in oven, and cook 1 hour. Set lid slightly ajar and cook until pork is fork-tender, about 1 hour more. Remove bay leaf and season with additional salt before serving.

HATCH CHILI PORK STEW

Steps:

• Roasting Hatch Chiles:.
• Medium or mild chiles are better suited than hot, which can ruin the harmony and smother other flavors.
• Begin by washing and drying well.
• Place chiles on a hot grill and roast about 3 minutes until the skin begins to blister, turn with tongs and blister the other side. The key is blistering the skin without cooking the chile. Continue until the chiles are generously blistered on all sides.
• Place in a plastic bag (or covered cassarole dish), seal and allow to sweat for about 5 minutes. Sweating loosens the blistered skin.
• Ignore advice to place chiles under running water to peel. Although easy, the water also washes away the smoky flavor. Simply use your fingers to remove the skin and seeds.
• Slice into strips instead of small pieces, which provide more color and bolder flavor.
• STEW:.
• Season the pork with salt and pepper.
• Heat a large skillet or Dutch oven on high.
• Add a thin layer of canola or vegetable oil, but not olive oil, which conflicts with the green chiles.
• When oil is hot, on the brink of smoking, add a small batch of pork chunks.
• Do not crowd. And if you add the pork too early, it will absorb too much of the oil.
• Allow pork to saute for a few minutes before turning with tongs to prevent the meat from sticking to the pan.
• Properly searing the meat seals in the juices and flavors.
• Once the first batch is done, remove with a slotted spoon.
• Add more oil, if necessary, then put in the remaining pork.
• After all the pieces are properly seared, remove from pan, drain excess oil and set aside.
• Add small amount of oil to frying pan and saute garlic and onions until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Fill a large pot with about 1 quart water and add boullion cube.
• Bring to a boil.
• Add tomatillos and cilantro.
• Boil about 5 minutes, or until tomatillos are soft.
• Drain off the water (saving 1 cup for stew).
• Using blender or food processor, puree the vegetables. Aim for a consistency similar to a light gravy.
• Add pork and onion mixture to puree, and bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat to medium-low, add the roasted chiles and simmer for 45 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the pork is tender. Add the saved water as needed.
• Do not cook in the oven; which causes the pork to dry out and shred. The chunks of pork should remain intact.
• Spoon stew into bowls and top with a light sprinkling of shredded cheese, and serve with lime slices and tortillas.

PORK & HOMINY IN RED CHILES SOUP/STEW

Steps:

• In a medium-large saucepan, add the water, salt and cubd pork. Bring liquid to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Cook pork about 20 minuts, until it is just tender. Remove pork from water using a slotted spoon. Cover pork with a damp cloth over a bowl to keep moist.
• In the same water used to cook the pork, add the ancho chiles. Remove from hat and allow the peppers to soak for 20 minutes. Transfer the softened chiles and liquid to a food processor or blender. Add garlic and oregano and process until smooth.
• In the same saucepan used earlier, add the oil and saute the chopped onions, stirring often until the onions are soft and lightly browned, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in the hominy, and the pureed peppers. Add chicken broth as needed to get the soup to reach the desired consistency or just a bit thinner than desired.
• Stir in the reserved pork, and bring soup to a boil. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook until the pork cubes are tender, about 30 minutes. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired.
