Don Fernandos Green Chile Stew Recipes

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.

Steps:

• In a medium skillet cook the ground chuck, ground pork, and cubed sirloin until it is done. Remove meat with a slotted spoon and place in a heavy, large soup pot.
• Add the chicken broth, beer, poblano peppers, and tomato. Bring to a boil, lower heat and reduce to a simmer.
• In another skillet add 2 tablespoons butter and heat over medium heat till melted. Add the onions, garlic and cilantro. Saute for 3 to 5 minutes or until onions are softened.
• Add the tobasco, oregano, cumin, parsley, salt, pepper and the first 1-1/2 tablespoons of flour. Stir constantly and cook for 3 minutes. Add this mixture to the soup pot and mix well.
• Bring the soup to a boil again and then reduce the heat to low. Simmer the soup for 2 hours stirring occasionally.
• In a small bowl place the other 2 tablespoons of butter and the other 1-1/2 tablespoons of flour and knead them together.
• While stirring constantly, add tiny bits of the butter and flour mixture to the soup. Simmer the soup for 15 minutes more.
