Jeanne's Chili Verde image

This is a great recipe to have expecially in cooler weather. It can be served with refried beans, spanish rice and hot flour tortillas or spooned onto a flour tortilla and rolled into a burrito to eat on the go. I get asked to make this for friends when the weather starts cooling off.

Time 4h

Number Of Ingredients 16

4 lb lean pork roast (shoulder) cut into 1 inch pieces
1 tsp garlic salt
1 tsp black pepper
1/3 c canola oil
1 c all-purpose flour
3 can(s) chicken broth
2 tsp coriander
2 tsp ground comino
1 tsp mexican oregano
3 4 oz. cans hot, diced green chilies
1 28 oz can green enchilada sauce
2 onions, small white
1 Tbsp garlic, minced
2 large potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/2 inch cubes
salt and pepper to taste
2 jalapeno peppers, diced (optional for extra heat

Steps:

  • 1. Season cubed meat with garlic salt and black pepper.
  • 2. Place meat in large bowl and add flour. Mix until meat is coated with flour.
  • 3. Add oil in a large stew pot and heat. Add meat and flour to hot oil and brown the meat on all sides.
  • 4. Add chicken broth, salt and black pepper to taste. Be sure to use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pan and stir this mixture well. Cover and simmer one hour over low heat.
  • 5. Add the coriander, comino, diced green chilies and one coarse-chopped onion to meat along with enchilada sauce and a little water or chicken broth if needed. You want a gravy-like thickness to the broth. Cover and simmer another 1½ hours.
  • 6. Add the garlic and the other coarse-chopped onion to the pot along with the diced potatoes. Add a little more water if needed, cover and simmer another ½ hour.
  • 7. When meat is falling-apart tender, serve with sides of beans, Spanish rice and hot flour tortillas.
