Crock Pot Chile Verde Stew (Caldillo) image

I love this recipe. It is easy to put together and cooks while you are away. This recipe is a combination of several recipes I have used over the years. Serve this with either flour or corn tortillas for a wonderful meal. The heat depends on the heat of the chiles. I use long green mild chiles from Hatch, NM.

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 lbs lean boneless beef stew meat
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes

2 tablespoons lemon juice
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/2 teaspoon sugar

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients, except for cilantro and jalapeno peppers, in a 6 quart crock pot.
  • I prefer to use Yukon Gold potatoes, washed and skin left on.
  • Stir to thoroughly combine the ingredients.
  • Cover, turn on low and cook for approximately 5 to 6 hours or until meat and potatoes are almost tender.
  • Add chopped cilantro, and if more heat is desired, the jalapeno peppers.
  • Continue cooking an additional 30 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Serve hot with tortillas of your choice.
  • This is wonderful warmed over the next day.
