This is a great recipe to have expecially in cooler weather. It can be served with refried beans, spanish rice and hot flour tortillas or spooned onto a flour tortilla and rolled into a burrito to eat on the go. I get asked to make this for friends when the weather starts cooling off.

How To Make jeanne's chili verde

  • Step 1
    Season cubed meat with garlic salt and black pepper.
  • Step 2
    Place meat in large bowl and add flour. Mix until meat is coated with flour.
  • Step 3
    Add oil in a large stew pot and heat. Add meat and flour to hot oil and brown the meat on all sides.
  • Step 4
    Add chicken broth, salt and black pepper to taste. Be sure to use a wooden spoon to scrape the bottom of the pan and stir this mixture well. Cover and simmer one hour over low heat.
  • Step 5
    Add the coriander, comino, diced green chilies and one coarse-chopped onion to meat along with enchilada sauce and a little water or chicken broth if needed. You want a gravy-like thickness to the broth. Cover and simmer another 1½ hours.
  • Step 6
    Add the garlic and the other coarse-chopped onion to the pot along with the diced potatoes. Add a little more water if needed, cover and simmer another ½ hour.
  • Step 7
    When meat is falling-apart tender, serve with sides of beans, Spanish rice and hot flour tortillas.
