Here’s my version of green chile pepper and pork stew, or a traditional Mexican guisado de puerco en chile verde. It is bursting with flavor and is mildly spicy. Serve with hot corn, flour tortillas with butter, or black beans and white rice.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 ½ pounds lean boneless pork, cut into 1-inch cubes
- 1 ½ cups diced onion
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 (14.5 ounce) can no-salt-added diced tomatoes
- 1 (4 ounce) can chopped green chilies
- 2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro
- ¼ cup cold water
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 1 cup shredded Mexican cheese blend
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, or to taste
Directions
Step 1
Heat oil in a large Dutch oven or large pot over medium heat.
Step 2
Spread flour into a wide, shallow dish; add pork and turn to coat, shaking off excess.
Step 3
Cook coated pork in hot oil until completely browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir onion and garlic in with pork; continue cooking and stirring until onion softens, about 5 minutes. Pour diced tomatoes, green chilies, and 2 tablespoons cilantro over pork mixture; stir. Place a cover on the Dutch oven and simmer mixture until pork is tender and no longer pink in the center, about 40 minutes.
Step 4
Whisk cold water and cornstarch together in a small bowl; stir into liquid in the Dutch oven and continue cooking until sauce thickens, 5 to 10 minutes.
Step 5
Remove the Dutch oven from heat; let dish rest 10 to 15 minutes. Ladle into bowls and top with cheese and desired amount of cilantro to serve.
Tips
This is not a very spicy meal in my opinion. However, if you're planning on cooking it for those with a more "delicate" palate, you may consider tossing in a couple of tablespoons of brown sugar while cooking to cut down the heat. You can also serve with a dollop of sour cream on top.
