Reviews for Pork and Tomatillo Stew

Go back to recipe

This dish is always a hit everytime I make it.  I recently took it to a potluck at work and left with everyone begging me for the recipe.

add less stock to make it less soupy.  also keep your chunks of meat whole if possible.

Much like a tortilla soup recipe, but with pork instead of chicken, plus the addition of the tomatillos and potatoes.  Very good!

Awesome!  I made this for my mom and dad and my father has asked for the recipe.  Something he has never done before!

A perfect winter meal.  My husband said it was one of the best meals I've ever made.  I highly recommend!

This was a good one I will definitely make again. I added a can of green tomatillo salsa to make it extra spicy. Very tasty with tortilla chips and sour cream.

I really enjoyed this stew but living in Texas, I'd like a little more Tex-Mex flavor & spice. Next time, I'll substitute the potatoes with some crisp corn and add mushrooms with the celery & onion. Also, I would replace the Anaheim & hot sauce with 1/2 or so jalepeno for kick. The base was really good and a nice alternative to Chicken Tortilla, which is everywhere here. Thanks!

Great recipe.  Easy to modify to change up or add ingredients.  Can't wait to make it again.

The picture of the stew in the magazine was what tempted me to make this - it looked like pure comfort food!  We are vegetarians, so we adapted the recipe by substituting Quorn brand "chik'n tenders" in place of the pork.  This stew was delicious!  Just really clean, bright flavors - it has easily earned a place on our  repertoire.  I might even serve it with some rice on those really cold fall evenings...

great comfort food without all the calories. make sure to use the pork tenderloin if your goal is to keep the fat content to a minimum. i will eat this everyday for lunch until it is gone!

I substituted pork butt for the loin cut on the recommendation of my butcher.  This increased the cooking time, but  I think that's more than made up for in the flavor.

Don't pass on the tortilla chips.  They do wonderful things to the texture and taste.
