Chipotle Pork Stew

Pork is so cheap these days so I bought 2 pounds of pork loin and used it to make this great chipotle pork stew. I didn't eat it as a stew, though. Instead, I put it on tortillas. It was absolutely great!

Ingredients:

  • 1 T vegetable oil
  • 2 pounds pork loin, cubed
  • 1 small onion, chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 (4 oz) can green chiles
  • 7 tomatillos, chopped
  • 1 T chipotle chile, minced, in adobo
  • 1 cup chicken broth
  • 1/2 T chili powder
  • 1 t ground cumin
  • 1 t dried oregano
  • 1/2 t salt

1. Heat oil in a large pot or Dutch oven. Add pork and brown well on all sides.

2. Add onion and garlic and cook for 5 minutes to brown.

3. Stir in tomatillos, chiles, chipotles, broth and seasonings. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, for approximately 3 hours or until pork is very tender.
