30-MINUTE SPICY PORK AND SWEET POTATO STEW



30-Minute Spicy Pork and Sweet Potato Stew image

Spicy, smoky chipotle chiles and chili powder add long-cooked flavor to this quick pork stew. To save time and use less fat, only the pork is browned in oil, while the onions get pureed with tomatoes, garlic and the chile to make the broth.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 17

1 cup canned unsalted diced tomatoes
1 medium white onion, quartered
2 cloves garlic
1/2 chipotle in adobo sauce, plus 1 tablespoon of the sauce
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large pork tenderloin, trimmed and cut into 1-inch chunks (about 1 1/2 pounds)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon chili powder
One 8-ounce sweet potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch chunks
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 tablespoon pickled jalapenos
1 cup 2 percent Greek yogurt
1/4 medium head red cabbage
1 medium Haas avocado
1 lime
1/2 cup loosely packed fresh cilantro
Eight 6-inch corn tortillas, warmed

Steps:

  • Puree the tomatoes, onions, garlic, chipotle and adobo sauce in a food processor until completely smooth.
  • Heat the oil in a large Dutch oven or pot over medium-high heat until nearly smoking. Add the pork in a single layer, season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper and cook, undisturbed, until beginning to brown, about 2 minutes. Turn the pieces and cook until brown, about 1 minute more. Dust the meat with the chili powder, and add the tomato puree, sweet potatoes, chicken broth, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium, cover and gently simmer until the meat is cooked through and the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, prepare the toppings: Chop the jalapenos, and whisk together with the yogurt in a small bowl. Shred the cabbage, cut the avocado into chunks and cut the lime into wedges.
  • Ladle the stew into large, deep bowls. Top with the yogurt mixture, garnish with the cabbage, avocado, lime and cilantro and serve with the tortillas.

PORK STEW WITH PEARS AND SWEET POTATOES



Pork Stew With Pears and Sweet Potatoes image

It's nice knowing that pears, which we think of almost exclusively for desserts in this country, are often used in savory ways in Eastern European cuisines. In this stew, caraway seeds, allspice and fennel reinforce that heritage, while sweet potatoes add rich, round flavors. Although bone-in ribs seem a bit more flavorful, boneless are also fine here. You can even use a combination of both if that's what turns out to be in the package you buy at the store. Because the pears can turn mushy overnight, this is the rare stew that's actually best served the day that it's made.

Categories     dinner, soups and stews, main course

Time 2h

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 1/2 pounds boneless or 3 pounds bone-in country-style pork ribs
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons ground black pepper
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more as needed
2 onions, halved and thinly sliced
2 bulbs fennel, fronds removed, bulb cored and thinly sliced
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 large or 3 small sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tablespoons caraway seeds
1 teaspoon ground allspice
2 bay leaves
2 to 3 cups chicken stock
3 pears of your choice, peeled, cored and cut into 1-inch cubes
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Grainy mustard for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • If using bone-in ribs, cut away the bones and set aside. Cut pork into 1-inch cubes, sprinkle the ribs evenly with the salt and allow to stand, refrigerated, for at least 1 hour and no more than 12 hours. Move oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 325 degrees.
  • Dry pork cubes well and sprinkle generously with pepper. Heat oil over medium-high heat in Dutch oven or other large, heavy pot until shimmering. Working in batches to avoid crowding, brown the pork well (including bones if you have them), transferring to a platter as browned, adding more oil in between batches if needed.
  • Add the onions and fennel to the pot and cook, stirring frequently, until onions are transparent, 7 to 10 minutes. Add the wine and bring to a simmer, stirring to dissolve any fond on the bottom of the pot. Add the pork (and bones if you have them), sweet potatoes, caraway seeds, allspice, bay leaves and enough chicken stock to just cover the meat. Bring to a simmer, cover and place in oven for 1 hour. Add the pears to the pot, then continue to cook until meat is very tender, about 30 to 45 minutes more.
  • Remove bones from pot, stir in lemon juice, then serve stew in bowls, passing mustard separately so people can put a dollop on their stew if desired.

Provided by Kathy D @LifeIsGoodkd

Categories     Pork

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 pound(s) boneless pork shoulder, cut into 1 1/2 inch cubes
5 tablespoon(s) vegetabale or olive oil
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 large onion, chopped
3 large garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoon(s) dried thyme
3 tablespoon(s) all-purpose flour
3 cup(s) chicken broth
1 cup(s) red wine, dry, full bodied
4 medium sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/1/2 inch chunks

Steps:

  • Adjust your oven racks to the lowest and middle positions and heat the oven to 450 degrees F. Heat a heavy-bottomed soup pot or Dutch oven over low heat.
  • Put the pork into a bowl and pour 2 T of oil over the meat. Season with salt and pepper and toss to coat well.
  • Increase the heat to med-high and wait until you see wisps of smoke starting to rise from the pot. Working in 2 batches, add pork and sear, turning only once, until 2 sides form a good brown crust - approx. 6-8 minutes per batch. Transfer the meat to a plate and set aside.
  • Add the onion to the pot, adding 1 T oil if the pan is dry, and cook while stirring, until softened - about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and thyme and cook until fragrant, approx. 1 minute. Whisk in the flour, then broth and wine. Return the pork to the pot. Using potholders, put a sheet of heavy-duty foil over the pot, pressing down on the foil so that it touches the stew. Seal foil around the edges. Put a lid on snugly andlet cook until you hear the liquid bubbling. Set pot on the middle rack of the oven and cook for 1 hour and 15 minutes. *45 minutes into the cooking, do the next step*
  • After 45 minutes, toss the sweet potatoes with the remaining 2 T of oil and a little salt and pepper into a 13 x 9 pan. Put that on the bottom rack and roast until the sweet potatoes and pork are tender, approximately 30 minutes longer. Remove the sweet potatoes and pork from the oven and stir the sweet potaotes into the stew , gently. Recover the pot with foil and lid and let the meat rest and sweet potatoes to marry with stew, about 15 minutes.Set stew over low heat, if necessary to reheat and then enjoy!
