New Mexican Red Pork Chili Recipes

Steps:

• Puree 2 cups chicken broth, 1/4 of tomatillos, green onions, cilantro with stems, and garlic in blender. Set salsa verde aside.
• Brush heavy large pot with oil; heat over medium-high heat. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. Working in batches, add pork to pot; cook until browned, turning occasionally, about 4 minutes per batch. Using slotted spoon, transfer pork to bowl. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from pot (add oil if needed). Add onion to pot; sauté until soft, about 5 minutes. Sprinkle cumin seeds over; cook until onion is golden and cumin is toasted, about 2 minutes. Add remaining tomatillos; cook until tender and browned in spots, stirring occasionally and reducing heat to medium if browning too quickly, about 8 minutes. Return pork and any juices to pot. Add 2 cups reserved salsa verde, 1 cup broth, chiles, and oregano. Cover; simmer over medium-low heat until pork is tender, about 2 hours. DO AHEAD: Can be made 3 days ahead. Cool slightly. Chill uncovered until cold, then cover and keep chilled. Bring to simmer before continuing.
• Add potatoes to pork. Simmer until potatoes are tender, about 30 minutes. Stir in remaining salsa verde; bring to simmer. Thin with additional broth, if desired. Season with salt and pepper.
• Divide chile verde among bowls. Top with cilantro and dollop of red chile salsa.

Steps:

• Microwave onions, chili powder, oil, garlic, tomato paste, and oregano in a bowl, stirring occasionally, until onions are softened, about 5 minutes; transfer to slow cooker.
• Stir broth, coffee, tapioca, chipotles, sugar, and bay leaves into slow cooker.
• Season pork with salt and pepper and nestle into slow cooker.
• Cover and cook until pork is tender, 9-11 hours on LOW or 5-7 hours on HIGH.
• Let chili settle for 5 minutes, then remove fat from surface using large spoon.
• Discard bay leaves.
• Stir in raisins and let sit until heated through, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in cilantro, lime zest, and lime juice.
• Season with salt, pepper, additional brown sugar, lime juice to taste and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large, heavy-bottomed, ovenproof pot over medium-high heat. Add onions and garlic and cook, stirring, until onions are golden, about 6 minutes. Remove from heat and transfer onions and garlic to a bowl with a slotted spoon.
• In a large bowl, stir together flour, salt, cumin, and pepper. Add pork and toss to coat. Return pot to medium-high heat, add remaining 1 tablespoons oil, and, working in batches, lightly brown meat on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes per batch. Transfer meat to a separate bowl as you go.
• Return onions and garlic to pot. Sprinkle with ground chiles and cook, stirring, 2 minutes (mixture will be thick- I added some of the broth at this point to keep the chile from burning). Add the rest of the broth, stirring to loosen browned bits from bottom of pot. Whirl sauce in a blender until smooth. Return sauce to pot and add bay leaf and reserved pork (I also added the pork bone).
• 4. Cover pot, put in oven, and cook 1 hour. Set lid slightly ajar and cook until pork is fork-tender, about 1 hour more. Remove bay leaf and season with additional salt before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F.
• Roast pork in a 2 1/2- to 3-quart shallow baking dish, uncovered, in middle of oven, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes.
• While pork is roasting, soak chiles in a bowl in just enough boiling-hot water to cover until softened, about 20 minutes. Drain chiles, discarding soaking water and stems.
• Purée chiles, garlic cloves, garlic powder, 3 cups water, and salt in a blender until smooth. Stir sauce into pork and bake, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until pork is tender, about 45 minutes.
