Ingredients
Method
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
- Season the pork shoulder cubes with salt and pepper, then brown them in the pot in batches. Remove the pork and set aside.
- In the same pot, add the diced onion and garlic. Sauté until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
- Add the roasted Hatch green chilies, diced tomatoes, cumin, oregano, and smoked paprika. Stir well to combine.
- Return the browned pork to the pot, then pour in the chicken broth. Bring the mixture to a simmer.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 1 hour, stirring occasionally, until the pork is tender and the flavors have melded.
- In a small bowl, mix the flour and water to create a slurry. Slowly stir this mixture into the chili to thicken it slightly. Cook for another 10 minutes, uncovered, to allow the chili to thicken.
- Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.
- Serve hot, garnished with chopped cilantro and optional sour cream.
Notes
For extra heat, add a diced jalapeño or serrano pepper. Serve with warm tortillas or crusty bread.
