Dynamite Pork Stew
As the name suggests...be careful. You may want to tone down the
J-factor (start with 4 Jalapenos).
Ingredients
- 1 lb boneless pork, shoulder or loin end, cut in 1-1/2 inch pieces
- 1 tbsp oil
- 1 small onion, chopped
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 tsp oregano
- 3/4 tsp cumin
- 1 cup peeled tomatoes, crushed
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 2-6 jalapenos, chopped
- 1-2 cans red kidney beans
- juice of 1 lime
Directions
- Heat oil in a stewing pot, add the pork and cook until
fat is rendered and pork is browned.
- Add onion and garlic and cook until onions have softened.
- Stir in oregano, cumin, and tomatoes. Add enough water
to barely cover the meat and onions. Add salt, pepper,
and jalapenos. Bring to simmer, cover and cook on
low heat for about an hour.
- Skim off fat, stir in beans and cook another 15-20 minutes.
Squeeze lime juice over stew and serve over rice (or with corn bread).
