Green Chili Recipe – Hatch Green Chili Recipe – Green Chile

Green Chili is one of my sons favorite dishes. The best green chili’s come from Hatch New Mexico, so I always use them when I’m making green chili. I generally use fresh green chili’s, but I went through all of them that I had on hand, so I won’t get any more until next harvest which is usually in September. The frozen green chili’s that I used are an excellent alternative. They sell them in mild and hot.
This recipe calls for chicken stock. I used homemade chicken stock which is preferred, but any chicken stock will be fine.
I personally add my roux after everything comes together in the pot. There are other recipes that call for it being added to the pork in the beginning. I feel that you can control the thickness better doing it this way. I like to freeze my leftover roux to be used for later, so I generally make big batches of it.

Ingredients for 2 quarts of Green Chili:
1 pound Diced pork or Chicken
16 ounces Green chili’s Diced (1/2 to be blended, 1/2 to remain chopped)
8 Cups Chicken Stock
2 Roasted jalapeno’s (Optional)
