12 steps
Ingredients
- 20 -25 tomatillos
- 2 serrano peppers
- 2 pasilla chiles
- 1 anaheim chili
- 1 onion, chunked
- 1/2 bunch cilantro
- 3 -4 chopped garlic cloves
- 1 1/2 tablespoons ground cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon cayenne powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 3 -5 lbs pork shoulder
- 1 (10 1/2 ounce) can chicken stock
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Directions
-
1Husk and remove stems and rinse tomatillos.
-
2Remove stems and rinse all peppers and slice in half. Depending on your taste you can either leave the seeds in or take them out.
-
3Boil tomatillos and peppers together until the tomatillos are a light yellow and are soft to the touch. Don't over cook. You don't want the tomatillos to break open.
-
4I use a ladle to pull out the tomatillos and peppers.
-
5Place them in a blender.
-
6Roughly chop cilantro leaves and add them to the blender. Blend well.
-
7I leave the peppers in the blender while I brown the pork in the pot that I will simmer everything inches.
-
8Brown chunked pork in olive oil and all the seasonings. Add onion. Add the garlic last so it doesn't burn.
-
9Combine blended peppers with with pork and chicken stock. Simmer on low for 2 hours.
-
10This is how I freeze it. I find it is best to freeze the chile verde in a flat surface, like a 9x13 pan. Spray with Pam first.cover and freeze. When completely frozen take out and you can cut to any size to fit your families needs. I take the cut sections and seal them into our foodsaver bags.
-
11To reheat place sections in to a pan on low and bring to a simmer. Then enjoy.
-
12You and even put the sections into a crock pot set on low and enjoy after a day of work.
