Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven. Dredge pork cubes in seasoned flour, brown on all sides. Set aside.
  2. NOTE: Brown means brown. Don't remove the pork cubes when they're merely gray (the biggest mistake home cooks make when they're browning meat for a stew.) The pork cubes should be browned to where they look like they could be eaten as is.
  3. Add onion, garlic, and Anaheims. Cook until onion softens, about 3-4 minutes.
  4. Add seasonings and bay leaf. Cook 1 minute.
  5. Deglaze with 1/2 cup chicken broth. Return the pork to the Dutch oven. Add the remaining chicken broth, chopped tomatoes, and refried beans.
  6. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, simmer with lid off for two hours.
  7. Can be served on the plate as a stew, with heated flour tortillas to sop up all the goodness, or can be used to make burritos. Just add an appropriate amount of stew in a line across the center of a heated flour tortilla, sprinkle on top of the stew some shredded iceberg lettuce and chopped fresh tomatoes, and place at either end of the line sour cream and guacamole.
  8. To increase the heat, add more Anaheims. To increase it further, add more chili powder (but try increasing the heat first by adding more Anaheims.).
