Green chile a big part of New Mexico culture. We have dozens of ways to cook with and enjoy green chile. We add it to soups and stews, put it on our hamburgers and pour it over our eggs. Our New Mexico green chile is grown in Hatch a small town in southern New Mexico. They grow a variety of green chilies there that range in heat from mild to extra hot. Most native New Mexicans love HOT green chile and use it in many types of recipes and I am certainly no exception.
Over the years, I have created numerous soup recipes using green chile. Several of my recipes have been published in our local Junior League cookbook, “A Taste of Enchantment”. Once again, inspired by some very spicy green chile, I ventured to create a new recipe. A very dear friend of mine noticed I had not posted a more tradition Green Chile Stew made with pork. Inspired by the challenge, I created this recipe. So here it is . . . one more recipe with green chile, a more traditional Green Chile Stew!
Bon Appétit,
