Pork Green Chili

Colorado and New Mexico are known for some of the best examples of chili this country has to offer.

Most chili from this region are made with green chilies.

* I like to use poblano chilies which add a nice amount of spice to the chili, if you do not like a lot of spice, use Anaheim chilis. I can’t buy fresh New Mexico green chilis where I live, but they would be the traditional green chili to use. Roasting and peeling fresh chilies makes a huge difference in the flavor of this dish, however it time does not allow, you can use canned green chilies.
