- Roasted Chilies, Onions, Garlic, Spices, and Pork Shoulder! All cooked down together for hours to create a beautiful blend of flavors that make up New Mexico Style Chili Verde, or Green Chili. Its easy to make, and oh so very delicious!
New Mexico Style Chili Verde
4 pounds Pork Shoulder, cubed in 2 inch pieces
3 medium onions, sliced
1 head garlic, peeled and rough chop
1 bunch cilantro, rough chop
5-6 sprigs fresh oregano, or 1 Tbsp dry
1 Tbsp whole Cumin
1 Tbsp whole Coriander
3 Bay leaves
3 Anaheim or Hatch Chilies
3 Poblano Chilies
1 Jalapeño (if yo want more heat)
4 cups Chicken Stock
salt and pepper
Roast your chilies over an open flame on your gas stove, or grill. Or you can do them under the broiler, turning them to make sure they get charred bald all the way around. Transfer to a bowl and cover in plastic wrap. Let steam for 20-30 minces, then peel and remove seeds and pith, chop.
Heat a heavy bottomed pan like a Dutch oven, over medium high heat, and adda splash of oil. Season your pork well with salt and pepper, then working in batches, brown the pork on all sides. Transfer to a plate, and continue to brown all the pork.
In a dry saute pan, toast the coriander and cumin till just fragrant, grind to a powder in a coffee grinder or mortar and pestle.
Once all the pork has been browned, add your onions, garlic, and bay leaves to the pan. Saute for 5 minutes till the onion have just started to soften. Add the oregano, cilantro, and dry spices to the pan, and saute for 2 minutes. Add the roasted and chopped chilies (and jalapeño if using), stir to incorporate.
Add the pork and all juices back to the pan, add with the chicken stock and cover teh pan with a lid. Transfer to a 250 degree oven and cook for 3 hours.
Remove the pan from teh oven, and using two forks, shred the pork.
Serve with fresh cilantro on top, and cornbread on the side!

I love all the comments abt tomatillos. I used to live in NM and CO, and all the green chile stews I had there were without tomatillos. I never even heard of them. Then moved to Northern CA, and all the Chile Verde in our local restaurants use tomatillos. It took me years to get used to them, but I have to admit - now I love the recipes with them. Different places in Mexico have major regional differences in the food. Not sure why, but in NorCal, our style is def w the tomatillos. If you add some chicken bullion, the dish is delish. Now I usually smoke a whole pork butt, then braise on the sauce for a few hours afterwards. It's insanely tasty.
This recipe he uses here looks more like what I had in CO, sort of, except there were a lot more chiles used, I think. I don't think it's for me. Nice ideas though.
Chile Verde uses Tomatillos. Green Chile uses roasted hatch/anaheim chilies. Semantics, yes, but accurate. lol
Im mexican, but I love NM chile verde because it doesn't have tomatillos!!!! 💚
I live in New Mexico...
Love Hatch Green Chili .... Good for the Soul
I do a similar thing, only with the addition of a bunch of tomatillos, also roasted.
I Love This Recipe because "NO Tomatillos"
Great recipe, and learned so much, again!
I just can't help myself. I don't know that you would ever find this kind of thing in NM or CO. We don't make "Chili Verde". We make green chili. Totally different. This has to be some kind of California thing. And, what's with all the onions!? 😮😮😮
Exactly. Chile Verde and Green Chili are 2 completely different dishes. The green chili I grew up with only used onion, garlic, cumin and oregano. and salt and pepper obviously. There was never any cilantro or coriander seeds. We also lightly floured our meat for browning, which helped thicken the sauce for use in burritos with homemade tortillas. I love both variants, but they are definitely different dishes.
Definitely going to make this recipe! Yum!!!
Wow delisius than k you had frend from albeugur used makebthst hecwas good cook bobby d
Looks perfect---lots of flavor but not scorching hot with peppers. mmm Makes me want some sopapillas with honey to go with.
Tthank you
Cook in oven for 3 hours. At what temperature?
Wow! That looks delicious! Will this dish freeze well?
Only 3 peppers? Hmmm
Gonna make this today, but I’m using some leftover smoked pulled pork I made.
Tomatillos are a major part of this recipe originally. It's a traditional Hispanic recipe. You may not like Tomatillos. But your tastes are your own. There's a reason most recipes have them.
This is "New Mexico " Style Chili Verde (NO Tomatillos)
And your tastes are your own 🤣🤣
Check out New Mexico cuisine, it's its own thing and it's popularity is massive and continually growing. And delicious! And it's traditional Hispanic food that goes way, way back.
Also there's a huge Hispanic traditional basis for Tex-Mex, which I never took seriously until I found out it was a tejano tradition, dating back to the early 1800s. Also Southern California has its own unique spin on traditional Mexican food with a solid foundation based in Hispanic culture.
If you want to go into Mexico itself though, each region has its own traditions and foods, a lot of which we don't even know up here in the States so to say that it's more or less "Hispanic" to have tomatillos or whatever.... It's kinda silly 😊
Chili Verde and Green Chili are 2 completely different dishes, despite meaning the same thing. The authentic Hispanic people I grew up around in AZ, never used tomatillos in Green Chile. For one, they weren't available in stores until relatively recently. Most people grew their own chilies in their gardens too.
Good job. This is pretty much exactly how I do it.I do use less pork and more chiles. Too many recipes with tomatillos, which just dilute the flavor of chiles. I don't use them or tomatoes. I've also reduced the onion and garlic unitl sometimes I don't even bother with them. But I think that some aromatics are better than none. I also like to dust the pork with flour before I brown it. This acts like a bit of roux to thicken the chile as it cooks. Living in Japan, my biggest problem is getting Hatch and poblano chiles. It's impossible. My friends who come visiting to ski bring me #28 cans of chiles but they are not even as good as the jarred varieties. Unfortunately, customs has opened every jar I have ever tried to bring in and then just put them back into my luggage without closing them. They make a huge mess and I can't use them at all. I get so mad but there is nothing I can do to prevent this so I gave up on carefully wrapping each jar in bubble wrap and packing them carefully in a box inside a suitcase because customs just destroys them anyway. I still have a couple of cans left from last winter and I want to make a batch before summer is over. But my wife and I just had COVID and now we can neither smell nor taste anything. Not having green chile--my favorite food on earth--is the hardest thing about living in Japan.
I disagree that tomatillos dilute the flavor of the chiles, provided you roast them first. Tomatillos are wonderful additions, in my opinion. I'm sure your recipe is tasty, though!
Agree 100% on the tomatillos. We enjoy the true earthy flavor of the chili’s and cumin, oregano. We are in Az. USA and have been using frozen chiles when we don’t have fresh. The canned or tins have a metallic aftertaste. Hope for you and your wife’s full recovery.
Have you tried green chili powder? Might be an option
Only 3 peppers, and no tomatillos? Hmmm. Also, can’t imagine wanting to chew on an oregano or cilantro stem. Built in floss?
Try it then come back
Tomatillos are NOT used in "New Mexico " Style Chile Verde
This is not from NM.....I live near Hatch and Pueblo, and this is not how we do it.😢
Typo? 4 pounds of Pork and 6-7 Chilies?
The description says 250 for 3 hours and the video subtitles say 325 degrees for 3 hours. Which is it?
Yes. Confusing.
That look absolutely delicious... What's the least hot pepper one can use for this? I don't even like black pepper... Could I just use Bell peppers?
Yes, you can.
No, then your just making stuffed bell peppers. You should only use fresh roasted Hatch/Anaheim green peppers for New Mexico style green chili. You can get mild hatch green chilies, just remove the seeds.
Anaheim chilles are not hatch nor New Mexico chilles. Hatch chilles are Big Jim, and they are much, much better.
Anaheim peppers are a literal variant of "Hatch" Chilies, as the original Anaheim seeds came from the Hatch/big jim variety out of New Mexico originally. The Anaheim's are generally milder now days, but are essentially the same chili strain. They're just grown in different locations with different goals.
You don't even know how to spell chile. In New Mexico it's speeled with an e. You lose a lot of credibility that way.
And hes using anaheim and poblano chilis, disgraceful.
Speeled. LMFAO 🤣 😂
