Mexican Green Chile Stew image

This is my great grandfather, Reverend Philip Worth's recipe. He was a great pastor and served his congregation very well and very loyally at Beautiful Savior Lutheran Church in Chicago for many, many years. I have cooked this many times - but it always tasted better when my great gramps made it! It's easy to make, but the flavor would never make you think that!

Time 3h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

3 tablespoons olive oil
1 ½ pounds beef chuck, cut into 1-inch cubes
1 ½ pounds pork shoulder, cut into 1-inch chunks
1 green bell pepper, seeded and chopped
1 clove garlic, minced
2 (14.4 ounce) cans whole peeled tomatoes
1 (7 ounce) can chopped green chilies
⅓ cup chopped fresh parsley
½ teaspoon white sugar
¼ teaspoon ground cloves
¼ teaspoon ground cumin
1 cup dry red wine
salt to taste

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir the beef and pork until evenly browned on all sides. Remove the meat using a slotted spoon and place in a bowl, then set aside. Cook and stir the bell pepper and garlic in the same skillet until tender. Remove from heat.
  • Combine the tomatoes, green chiles, parsley, sugar, clove, cumin, and red wine in a large pot, breaking up the tomatoes using a spoon. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer. Stir in the browned beef and pork along with their juice, then add the cooked green pepper and garlic. Cover and continue to cook over low heat for 2 hours, stirring occasionally. Remove lid and allow to simmer until sauce is reduced, about 45 minutes.
