Hatch Green Chile and Pork Chops Stew is the kind of soul-warming Southwestern comfort food that fills the kitchen with irresistible aroma. Tender pork pieces simmer gently in a broth infused with roasted Hatch green chiles, tomatoes, and warming spices. The result is a stew that’s rich, smoky, slightly spicy, and layered with the unmistakable depth of true Hatch chile flavor.
As the pork browns, it creates a savory foundation that the onions, garlic, and spices build upon. Roasted Hatch green chiles add the signature heat and smokiness, while tomatoes round out the broth with subtle sweetness and acidity. A slow simmer ties everything together, transforming simple ingredients into a hearty, rustic dish that feels both comforting and vibrant.
