So I got to thinking, what to make with the several green chiles I roasted yesterday… I thought why not make a stew in the style of the Spanish dish Rajas but without any creaminess to it… Green Chile Stew it is!
Slice up the chiles (Anaheim and Pasilla), I sliced mine Rajas style, in strips.
I used a whole onion sliced Rajas style too.
3 garlic cloves chopped small
Sweat the onions
Add in garlic, next… 1 can of petite diced tomatoes and the chiles.
I used beef and chicken broth, 8 cups for 6 chiles. I seasoned the stew with comino, majoran, oregano, a bit of lemon juice, s & p.
Combine all.
Simmer the mixture for 30 minutes.
This is a good tasting stew, top it with fresh cilantro, shredded cheese, more lemon juice, hot sauce (the soup is a little spicy all ready so taste test first) and maybe even chicharones (pork rinds) or crushed tortilla chips for added yummy flavor and crunch.
I hope you enjoy…
* This would be great with the addition of shredded deli roasted chicken.
