Quick and Easy Green Chile Stew with Pork Recipe

In our younger years, we used to eat at a Mexican buffet restaurant pretty often. Jay always got the green chili stew with pork. I didn’t think I would like it, so it took me a few years to even try it.

Once I tried it, it was my favorite thing on the menu. After several attempts of creating this delicious stew at home, Jay finally mastered it! See his quick and easy Green Chili Stew with Pork Recipe.

Green Chili Stew with Pork

This is an easy dump and go recipe. The most difficult part is cutting up the vegetables! The cook time will depend on the method you choose to cook it.

Ingredients

Instructions

This is one of those easy “dump” recipes. If you use an InstaPot or a slow cooker, your preparation will not take a lot of time.

Other Options

Stovetop

If you don’t have an Instant Pot, you can use a large Dutch oven and cook it on the stove. You would need to keep a closer eye on it and add water or chicken broth as the liquid evaporates. Start out at a boil and then cook it on medium to medium low heat until the potatoes are tender. 

Slow Cooker

You could also use a slow cooker. If that is your choice, brown the meat on medium-high heat in a skillet before adding it to the slow cooker.

Optional Ingredients

• Chopped Chicken Breasts instead of Pork
• Garlic Cloves
• Hatch Chiles
• White Beans or Pinto Beans
• Sweet Corn
• Fresh Jalapeno Peppers for a little bit of extra spice

Serve With

• Sour Cream
• Salsa Verde
• Fresh Lime Juice
• Tortilla Chips
• Flour Tortillas
• Avocados

I love this green chile stew recipe, just the way Jay makes it. However, if you don’t like spicy food, you can make it with a milder green chile sauce.

Either way, I hope you like this delicious soup as much as we do.
