How about a Chili Verde Stew recipe for these January mornings?

¾ pound boneless pork roast, cut into one inch cubes

1 tablespoon canola oil

¼ cup chopped green pepper

¼ cup chopped onion

¼ cup minced garlic

¼ cup very dry red wine or beef broth

1 can diced tomatoes, undrained

½ cup salsa

2 tablespoons canned chopped green chilies, divided

½ teaspoon ground cumin

¼ teaspoon sugar

Dash ground cloves

2 tablespoons minced fresh parsley

1 small jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped

In a large saucepan cook the pork in oil over medium heat until no longer pink. Remove and set aside. In the same pan sauté the green pepper, onion and garlic for 1 to 2 minutes or until tender. Stir in the park, wine or broth, tomatoes, salsa, 1 teaspoon chilies, cumin, sugar and cloves. Cover and cook over low heat for 40 minutes stirring occasionally.

Stir in the parsley, jalapeno and remaining chilies. Cover and cook 20 to 25 minutes or until meat is tender. Be sure to be careful when cutting peppers. The oils can burn your skin.
