Both At Once Fiest Day Posole Green Chile Stew Recipes

• Place first 5 ingredients and 3-3/4 cups broth in a 3- or 4-qt. slow cooker. Puree tomatillos with remaining broth in a blender; stir into pork mixture., Cook, covered, on low until pork is tender, 4-5 hours. If desired, serve with avocado and other toppings.

GREEN CHILE STEW

Steps:

• Saute the potatoes, onions, and garlic in the vegetable oil for 5 minutes or until almost soft. Then add the green chile, water, and salt. Boil for 15 minutes.
• In a small bowl combine the flour and water and whisk well to make the thickener. Add the thickener and let simmer for 5 minutes. This can be served in a bowl with a tortilla and sour cream. You can add beef, chicken, or pork. This can also be used as a sauce for your favorite Mexican dishes. Or even over a steak or chicken breast. Garnish with lettuce and tomatoes.

BOTH AT ONCE: FIEST DAY POSOLE & GREEN CHILE STEW

Steps:

• In large Dutch oven, saute cubed beef or pork (or, if you're making the chicken version, boil the bird and shred the meat, reserving the stock). In second large Dutch oven, saute onions and garlic until golden. Divide contents equally among the two pans. Add oregano, water and bouillon granules to both and bring to boil. To the posole pan, add posole and red chile. To the green chile pan, add green chile (Additional vegetables such as chopped potato and carrot can also be included, if you like, but I'm a purist about my Bowl of Green.) Cover both pans and reduce heat Simmer until meat is tender and flavors blend, stirring occasionally and adding more water as necessary. Adjust seasonings before serving. If some in your group like their posole mild, go easy on the chile -- but give the wild ones extra Red Sauce to ladle in. Simply whisk more powdered red chile with hot stock from the pot, mixing to the consistency of thick enchilada sauce.

GREEN CHILE STEW

Steps:

• Brown pork, chicken, or beef in oil. Sprinkle flour over the meat and add chopped garlic according to your taste. Add chicken bouillon, crushed tomatoes, potatoes, and Green Chile. Add salt to taste. Bring to a slow boil and simmer until meat and potatoes are tender, about 45 minutes. The secret is to add a teaspoon of kitchen bouquet at almost the end of cooking, which brings out the flavor even more! You can sprinkle shredded cheese on top if you like and serve with warm tortillas or crusty bread.

TERRITORIAL CHILE POSOLE STEW

Steps:

• Warm a large heavy skillet over medium high heat; sprinkle the meat with salt and pepper.

• Lower the heat to medium and add the onion and garlic.
• Sauté until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes.
• Place the contents of the skillet into the crock-pot and add remaining ingredients.
• If using canned posole, wait until the last 2 hours to add to the crock-pot.
• Cover and simmer for 4 to 6 hours (depending on your crock-pot the cooking time may need to be increased), until the posole has popped and is tender.
• During the last few hours of cooking, it may be necessary to add the warm water or additional chicken stock; the dried posole will absorb the stock as it cooks.
• Salt the stew to taste, garnish with additional cilantro if desired and serve.

• Cook and stir for a few more minutes, then pour in the vegetable broth. Reduce the heat to low, and simmer for about 30 minutes.
