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.

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.

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.

GREEN CHILI PORK STEW

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.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Spread all the spices (chile, coriander, cumin, oregano, peppercorns) on a sheet of aluminum foil with the edges turned up to avoid spillage and toast the spices for a few minutes. Transfer the toasted spices to a molcajete or mortar and pestle and grind together.
• Sprinkle the pork cubes with the spices, covering all surfaces of the meat as much as possible. Let the pork sit covered in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
• Create a beurre manie by mashing the flour into the butter in a small bowl. Set aside until needed as a thickener for the stew.
• Heat the grape seed oil in a deep saute pan over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer. Add the pork cubes and brown on all sides. Lower heat to medium and add the garlic and onion and stir to combine flavors. Cook until the onion turns translucent, then stir in chili powder and paprika. Add 4 cups water and reduce heat to low. Cover and let simmer until fork tender, about 2 hours. Add water as needed throughout the cooking process. In the last 30 minutes of cooking time, add the beurre manie to thicken. Serve hot.

Cut the pork in half and season with 3/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Rub all over with the cumin and coriander. Add the pork to the slow cooker. Cover and cook on low until tender, 7 hours.
• Remove the pork to a plate. Stir the corn into the slow cooker and cover. Shred the pork into bite-size pieces, discarding any large pieces of fat. Return the pork to the slow cooker; season with salt and pepper.

NEW MEXICO RED CHILE & PORK STEW (CARNE ADOVADA)

Steps:

• 1. Red Chile Pods: The New Mexico red chile has a very unique & spicy taste... It's warm and sweet, at the same time. You want those that have been sun dried. In addition, they come in five different varieties: mild, medium, hot, x-hot, and xx-hot. For this dish use mild, or medium. The best come from the Hatch Valley area of New Mexico. A good place to get them online is: http://diazfarms.com/chile-shop?page=shop.browse&category_id=3
• 2. Chile Pequin: A small chile pepper, usually attaining a length of only 1/2 inch. They are extremely hot (between 13 to 40 times hotter than a jalapeño) On the Scoville scale they rate from 60,000 to 100,000. In other words: A little goes a long way. A good place to get them online is: http://www.spicesinc.com/p-1537-pequin-chiles.aspx
• 3. Red Chile Powder: If you don't want the heat of the Chile Pequin, you can substitute an equal amount of New Mexico red chile powder. You won't have as much heat; however, the flavor will still be there. A good place to purchase on line is: http://diazfarms.com/chile-shop?page=shop.browse&category_id=2
• 4. Chef's Note: Since this dish requires resting in the refrigerator overnight, you might want to start the process later in the afternoon.
• 5. Gather your ingredients.
• 6. Place the oil in a large saucepan, or Dutch oven, over medium heat.
• 7. Put the minced garlic into the pan and sauté, until it begins to color.
• 8. Chef's Tip: It will go from golden, to brown, to burned in a short time. Keep your eye on that pan.
• 9. Remove the pan from the heat, and leave the garlic in the pan.
• 10. Place a rack in the middle position, and preheat the oven to 375f (190c).
• 11. Chef's Note: Is it spelled Chile, or Chili? This is rule that I go by. The hot peppers or the plant from which the peppers come should be spelled with an "e." A spicy dish of meat and sometimes beans should be spelled with an "i." You can start a bar fight with that question.
• 12. Remove the stems from the peppers, and shake to remove the seeds.
• 13. Place peppers into a colander and then rinse and drain.
• 14. Place in a single layer on a baking sheet, put into the oven, and bake for about 5 to 7 minutes. This will remove any excess water.
• 15. Remove from the oven and allow them to cool.
• 16. Once sufficiently cool, break each chile into several pieces.
• 17. Place the peppers into a blender, or food processor fitted with an S-blade.
• 18. Add the filtered water.
• 19. Process until pureed.
• 20. Chef's Note: You will probably see a few bits, but for the most part, the mixture should be nice and smooth.
• 21. Add the pureed chilies into the saucepan with the garlic.
• 22. Add the remaining ingredients, with the exception of the pork and limejuice, to the saucepan.
• 23. Bring the sauce to the boil, and then immediately reduce to a low simmer.
• 24. Continue to stir and simmer for 30 minutes, or until the sauce begins to thicken.
• 25. Chef's Note: We don't want it too thick, almost like a light cream sauce.
• 26. Chef's Note Remove the saucepan from the heat, and allow it to cool down to room temperature, about 1 to 2 hours.
• 27. Chef's Tip: Don't hasten the cooling process by placing the saucepan in the refrigerator. As the sauce slowly cools it gives the spices a chance to get acquainted.
• 28. While the sauce is cooling, trim the excess fat from the pork and cut into 1 to 1.5 inch cubes.
• 29. Chef's Note: You don't have to be perfect here... this is a rustic dish.
• 30. Chef's Tip: If you're planning on using this in a burrito or taco, cut the meat into smaller pieces.
• 31. Stir the pork into the chile sauce, cover and place in the refrigerator, overnight.
• 32. The next day, place a rack in the lower position, and preheat the oven to 275f (135c).
• 33. Cover and place into the oven, and bake until the meat is fork tender, and the sauce has cooked down, about 3 hours.
• 34. About once an hour, open the oven and give the stew a quick stir.
• 35. Chef's Note: If, after 3 hours, the sauce still seems a bit runny, remove the cover, and allow to bake for an additional 15 to 20 minutes.
• 36. Remove from oven and add the reserved limejuice.
• 37. Serve with a simple side salad of lettuce and tomatoes, and bring plenty of freshly made flour tortillas. Enjoy.
• 38. Keep the faith, and keep cooking.

PORK-AND-GREEN-CHILI STEW

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.
