This is a dish I learned to cook from a hispanic couple when I lived in pueblo colorado. Recipe is easily adjustible according to taste. I have it heavy on the heat cuz i like it hot!
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup plus 1 tbsp of vegetable oil shopping list
- 1/4 cup flour shopping list
- 3 cloves of garlic or to taste shopping list
- 1 small yellow onion shopping list
- 1 tbsp garlic salt shopping list
- 1-2 lbs pork loin trimmed of fat and cut in cubes shopping list
- 6-8 pablano peppers roasted or cans of chopped green chilis shopping list
- 1 can hot Rotel tomatoes shopping list
- 1 can regular stewed tomatoes shopping list
- chicken broth or pork broth if available (chicken works well tho) shopping list
- 1-2 jalapenos to taste or omit if you like shopping list
- cheddar cheese and sour cream for toppers shopping list
How to make it
- heat oil in a fry pan and add flour to create a light tan roux
- put in a bowl and set to the side for later
- season pork cubes with garlic salt and brown in a nonstick with 1/2 tbsp of oil , not necessary to cook through just brown for flavor
- place in a large pot on medium heat and just cover with chicken broth
- place other 1/2 tbsp of oil in skillet and cook garlic and onion until lightly carmalized
- deglaze pan with a little chicken broth and pour onion mixture into larger pot
- put in can of rotel tomatoes, and roasted chopped peppers (or cans of green chilis are easier)
- take stewed tomatoes and squish them up with your hands so there are no large pieces and pour into pot
- add jalapenos according to preference (i dont think its hot enough if it doesnt give me the sniffles hehe)
- mix some of the chili juice with about half of the roux and pour into the pot.
- bring to a simmer and see how thick it is, if its too thin add more roux until its as thick as you like it
- allow it to cook on low heat for another 30 minutes or so
- serve over rice or just as soup topped with condiments of your choice! i like making nachos out of it for day two! Even better leftover
