Green Chile Chile Verde Recipes

Steps:

• Heat shortening in medium-sized skillet on medium heat.
• Saute the onions in shortening.
• Add flour and cook for 1 minute.
• Add all remaining ingredients and simmer for 20 minutes.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a Dutch oven or large pot over medium-high heat. Season the pork with salt and pepper to taste, then place into the hot oil. Cook until golden brown on all sides, about 7 minutes. Once browned, remove the pork and set aside. Reduce heat to medium, and stir in the onion and garlic. Cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Return the pork to the pot, and stir in the green chiles, diced tomatoes with juice, tomatillo salsa, and chicken broth. Season with oregano and clove. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 20 minutes.
• After 20 minutes, remove 2 cups of the soup (ensure there are no pork cubes in it), and pour into a blender. Hold down the lid of the blender with a folded kitchen towel, and carefully start the blender, using a few quick pulses to get the soup moving before leaving it on to puree. Puree until smooth, then pour back into the cooking pot. This will create a thicker texture for your chili and will eliminate some of the chunky bits of chiles. Continue to simmer, stirring occasionally until the pork is very tender, at least 35 minutes more.

Steps:

• Place Hatch chiles directly on the grates of a gas stove. Cook over medium heat, flipping with tongs occasionally, until blackened and charred, about 5 minutes. Place in a sealed plastic bag and allow to cool, 7 to 8 minutes.
• Peel off charred skins, remove seeds, and cut 1/2 of the chiles into 1-inch squares. Set aside. Place remaining chiles in a food processor and process until finely chopped. Add processed chiles to chopped chiles. Set aside.
• Combine pork cubes, water, and salt in a Dutch oven. Cover and cook over medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring every 5 minutes. Uncover, raise heat to medium-high, and cook, stirring constantly until the water evaporates and the pork browns in its rendered fat, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove pork and set aside.
• Heat oil in the Dutch oven. Add onion; cook and stir until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic and cumin and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in flour and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Add chiles, pork, chicken broth, canned tomatoes, salt, and pepper. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer, stirring occasionally, until pork cubes are fork-tender, about 1 1/2 hours.

Steps:

• Mix chicken, potatoes, salsa, broth, cumin, salt, and pepper in slow cooker. Cover and cook until chicken shreds easily with a fork and sweet potatoes are tender, about 4 hours on high or 6 hours on low. Add beans during last 30 minutes of cooking. Shred chicken in slow cooker with 2 forks. Taste and season with salt and pepper, if needed. Serve topped with avocado, cilantro, sour cream, and/or onion, if using.
• Do Ahead
• Chili can be made 3 days ahead; cover and chill.

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in a pot over high heat until it's nearly smoking. Add pork shoulder cubes in a single layer. Let sear until brown on one side, 4 to 5 minutes. Mix and turn pieces over and brown on the other side, 4 to 5 minutes. Add onion, 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring until onions turn translucent, about 4 minutes. Add oregano, cumin, coriander, and cayenne. Stir and cook until seasonings get fragrant, about 2 minutes. Reduce heat to low.
• Remove paper husk from tomatillos and rinse. Cut into quarters. Place in blender with garlic, jalapeno pepper, poblano, cilantro, and chicken broth. Pulse on and off until pieces start to break down. Then blend until mixture has liquefied, about 30 seconds. Stir sauce into the meat mixture. Add 1 teaspoon salt and bay leaf. Increase heat to high and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low to maintain a slow but steady simmer for about 1 hour. Add potatoes, 1/2 teaspoon salt, black pepper. If mixture has reduced to where potatoes are not immersed, add more broth to cover. Simmer until meat and potatoes are tender, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
• Garnish individual servings with a dollop of sour cream, some pickled red onions (if desired), and cilantro leaves.

Steps:

• Combine pork butt, salt and 2 cups water in an 8-quart stockpot over high heat and bring to a boil. Turn down to a simmer and cook until pork is tender, 1 hour and 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine garlic cloves, serranos, cumin, black peppercorns, onion quarters, the chopped Anaheims and 2 cups water in a blender. Blend well until mixture is liquid, then slowly add cilantro. Continue to blend until mixture is completely liquid, then add mixture to stockpot (at whatever point the stockpot is at). Bring stockpot back to a boil, then, reduce heat back to a simmer.
• Combine tomatillos and 1 cup water in blender and blend well until mixture becomes liquid, about 5 minutes. Add to stockpot and bring mixture to a boil again, then reduce the heat to medium.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Roast remaining whole Anaheim peppers in broiler, turning occasionally, until charred. Remove skin under cool running water and slice thin. Add to the stockpot in the last 30 minutes of cooking time.

Steps:
