I got this recipe from a 1980 Good Housekeeping magazine, but made some changes to it. I make it often and the family loves it. Good served with warm flour tortillas, also good served over rice.
Ingredients:
2 lbs. boneless pork roast or beef for stew, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks (i use pork)
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 large onion, coarsely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
water
1 large can (10oz) whole green chilies, (reserve liquid) cut each chili in large chunks
2 or 3 canned pickled jalapeno chilies, seeded and minced
1 large can tomatoes, cut into chunks ( i found some cans of yellow tomatoes and they work great in this recipe)
1 1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon cumin
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
Directions:
1. In a 5-quart Dutch oven or soup-pot over medium high heat, in hot oil, cook pork or beef and garlic until meat is well browned. Stir in 1 cup water, reserved liquid from chilies and remaining ingredients except flour;
2. Heat to boiling. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer 2 hours or until meat is fork-tender, stirring occasionally. Add a little water if needed.
3. In a cup with fork stir flour and 2 tablespoons water until well blended.
4. Gradually stir flour mixture into chili mixture in dutch oven; cook over medium heat until slightly thickened, stirring constantly.
5. Skim off any fat from liquid in dutch oven.
