Ingredients

• 2 pounds Pork shoulder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
• 1 large Yellow onion, diced
• 4 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
• 2 cups Diced green chilies (fire-roasted, if possible)
• 3 medium Russet potatoes, peeled and diced
• 4 cups Chicken broth
• 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
• 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro, chopped (optional, for garnish)
• 4 pieces Lime wedges (optional, for serving)

Directions

Step 1

Cut the pork shoulder into bite-sized cubes and season with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

Heat the vegetable oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.

Step 3

Working in batches, sear the pork on all sides until browned. Remove the pork from the pot and set aside.

Step 4

In the same pot, add the diced onion and sauté for 5-6 minutes until softened and translucent.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

Step 6

Add the diced green chilies, stirring to combine with the onions and garlic.

Step 7

Return the seared pork to the pot, along with the diced potatoes.

Step 8

Pour in the chicken broth and add the cumin and oregano. Stir to combine.

Step 9

Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover. Simmer gently for 75-90 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pork is tender and the stew has thickened slightly.

Step 10

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 11

Serve the stew hot, garnished with chopped fresh cilantro and with lime wedges on the side, if desired.
