Advertisement

👨‍🍳 Instructions:

Step 1: Brown the Pork
Season pork with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a pot and brown pork on all sides. Set aside.

Step 2: Sauté the Aromatics
In the same pot, sauté onion until translucent. Add garlic and cook 1 minute more.

Step 3: Add Flavor
Add roasted green chiles, tomatoes, oregano, and cumin. Stir and let simmer briefly.

Step 4: Simmer the Stew
Return pork to the pot. Pour in broth and add potatoes. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 1.5–2 hours until pork is fork-tender and potatoes are soft.

Step 5: Optional Thickener
For a thicker stew, mix 1 tbsp flour with cold water and stir it in during the last 10 minutes.

Step 6: Serve Hot
Garnish with fresh cilantro or diced onions if desired. Serve with warm flour tortillas.


💡 Pro Tip: For spicier flavor, add a few roasted hot Hatch chiles or a pinch of crushed red pepper. This stew gets even better the next day!
