Follow The Directions

01

Step
15 mins

Heat oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in cubed pork, and cook until nicely browned and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Remove skillet from heat, and allow to cool briefly.

02

Step
5 mins

Sprinkle flour over pork. With a wooden spoon, stir pork to coat, scraping the bottom of the skillet to loosen browned bits. Add chile peppers, jalapenos, and onions. Stir in tomato sauce and water. Season to taste with onion salt, garlic salt, and salt and pepper.

03

Step
40 mins

Return skillet to medium heat. Bring to a simmer, cover, and cook 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove cover, and cook 10 minutes more.

For a richer flavor, consider using pork shoulder or butt. Cut into 1-inch cubes.
Roasting your own green chiles and jalapenos elevates the dish. Substitute 4 or 5 chopped roasted chiles for canned.
Adjust the amount of jalapenos to control the spice level.
The longer this simmers, the more the flavors meld. If time allows, simmer for an hour or more.
Serve with warm tortillas, refried beans, and your favorite toppings. A dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of cheese adds a lovely touch.
