Preparation

  1. Turn the broiler on high. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  2. Place the tomatillos, garlic, serrano, onion, jalapeños, and poblanos on the prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil and season with salt and black pepper, then toss to coat evenly.
  3. Broil the vegetables for 5–7 minutes, or until lightly charred.
  4. Transfer the broiled vegetables to a blender and blend until smooth.
  5. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the pork shoulder pieces to the pot and season with salt and black pepper. Sear the pork until opaque, about 5 minutes.
  6. Pour in the chile verde sauce, water, and lime juice. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer for 1 hour, or until the pork is fully cooked through. Season the stew with salt and pepper to taste.
  7. Serve hot, garnished with cilantro.
  8. Enjoy!
