Instructions

  1. 1

    Turn the broiler on high. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or aluminum foil.

  2. 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. 3

    Broil the vegetables for 5–7 minutes, or until lightly charred.

  4. 4

    Transfer the broiled vegetables to a blender and blend until smooth.

  5. 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. 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.
