Ingredients:
- 2 pounds green chili peppers of choice I used a variety – see the discussion above
- 2 tablespoons olive oil + more as needed
- 1 1/2 pounds pork shoulder cut into bite sized pieces (chuck roast is good, too)
- 2 tablespoons chili powder
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 medium onion chopped
- 4 cloves garlic chopped
- 6 cups chicken broth beef broth is good, too
- 1 pound yellow potatoes cut into small cubes
- 2 medium carrots peeled and cut into small cubes
- 1/4 chopped cilantro or to taste (+ more for garnish)
Instructions:
- Slice the peppers in half lengthwise and set them onto a baking sheet. Bake them at 400 degrees F for 20 minutes, or until their skins blister up. Cool them slightly, then peel off the skins and discard them. Chop the roasted peppers and set them aside.
- While the peppers are roasting, toss the chopped pork shoulder with 2 tablespoon olive oil, chili powder, paprika, cumin and salt and pepper.
- Heat a large pot to medium heat. Add the pork shoulder and brown the pieces on each side, about 5 minutes. Scoop the browned pork shoulder into a bowl and set aside.
- In the same pot, add the onion and cook for 5 minutes, until softened. Add a bit more olive oil if needed.
- Add the garlic and cook another minutes, until you can smell the gorgeous garlic.
- Add the browned pork along with the stock, potatoes, carrots and chopped roasted peppers.
- Bring to a quick boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for at least 90 minutes. You can simmer longer to develop even more flavor.
- When ready to serve, remove from heat and swirl in the cilantro.
- Serve into bowls and garnish with extra cilantro. I like to toss on some fresh pepper slices and spicy chili flakes as well.
- Enjoy!
