Pork And Collards Stew Recipes

SPICY PORK STEW WITH HOMINY AND COLLARD GREENS

Steps:

• Soak the hominy in plenty of water overnight. Drain.
• Season the pork all over with 1 teaspoon salt and the black pepper. Heat the oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Sear the meat in batches until well browned on all sides. Transfer to a plate.
• Add the onion to the pot and cook until soft, 5 to 7 minutes. Add the garlic, chile powder, cumin, oregano, bay leaf and cinnamon. Cook 1 minute. Return pork to pot. Stir in the chipotle, hominy, beer, 6 cups water and 2 teaspoons salt. Simmer, covered, for 1 hour. Uncover and simmer for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours more till meat and hominy are tender, adding water as needed if too thick. Stir in collards for last 20 minutes. Discard bay leaf and cinnamon. Taste and adjust seasonings. Ladle into bowls; garnish with lime, cilantro, avocado and radish.

SOUTHERN-STYLE COLLARD GREENS RECIPE

Steps:

• Add the pork, onion, salt, garlic powder, black pepper, and red pepper flakes to a large pot with 1 quart (4 cups) water. Cover, bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer, and cook for 30 minutes to create the pork broth. (You should be able to wash and prepare the collard greens while you make the broth.)
• Add the cut collard greens to the pork broth, cover, and continue to simmer until nice and silky, anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours (or more).
• Remove the smoked pork neck bones, pick the meat off the bones into small pieces, and return the meat to the collard greens, discarding the bones. Add the vinegar, taste, and adjust the seasonings as you see fit. Serve.

BLACK-EYED PEA POSOLE WITH PORK AND COLLARD GREENS

Steps:

• Preheat broiler.
• Place poblano pepper on a foil-lined baking sheet; broil 3 inches from heat 8 minutes or until blackened and charred, turning after 6 minutes. Place in a heavy-duty zip-top plastic bag; seal. Let stand 15 minutes. Peel and discard skin; discard seeds, membrane, and stem. Coarsely chop pepper; set aside.
• Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Coat pan with cooking spray. Add pork; cook 4 minutes, browning on all sides. Add 1 cup broth, scraping pan to loosen browned bits. Stir in remaining 2 cups broth, chopped poblano, greens, and next 6 ingredients (through garlic). Bring to a boil; cover, reduce heat, and simmer 40 minutes or until pork is tender. Stir in peas, salt, and black pepper; simmer, uncovered for 5 minutes or until thoroughly heated. Serve with lime wedges.

PORK AND COLLARDS STEW

Steps:

• Combine the pork, cumin and paprika in a bowl; season generously with salt and pepper and toss. Heat a large pot or Dutch oven over high heat until very hot; add 2 tablespoons olive oil. Add the pork in a single layer and cook, undisturbed, until browned on the bottom, about 2 minutes. Flip and continue to cook, turning, until browned all over, 4 to 5 more minutes; remove to a plate.
• Add the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, the sweet potatoes, onion, sliced garlic and 1/4 teaspoon salt to the pot. Cook over high heat, stirring, until the onion is softened, about 2 minutes. Add the collards, chicken broth and 1 cup water; cover and bring to a boil. Uncover, reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the vegetables are tender, 8 to 10 minutes.
• Reduce the heat to low. Remove 1 cup vegetables with some broth to a blender; add the parsley, grated garlic and 1/4 cup water and puree. Return the pork to the pot and simmer until cooked through, about 2 minutes. Stir in the vegetable puree and warm through; season with salt and pepper. Divide among bowls, top with jalapeno slices and drizzle with olive oil.

INSTANT POT PORK STEW WITH RED WINE AND OLIVES

Steps:

• Season the pork all over with the salt and pepper. In a large bowl, combine the pork, garlic, rosemary, sage and red-pepper flakes.
• In a small dry skillet, toast the coriander seeds until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a mortar and pestle and coarsely crush (or do this on a cutting board with the side of a heavy knife). Add crushed seeds to the pork and toss well. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
• Set the pressure cooker to the sauté function on medium. Add 1 tablespoon oil and let it get hot for a few seconds, then add enough pork chunks to fit comfortably in one layer with a little space around each piece. Let brown for 2 to 3 minutes per side, then transfer the cubes to a plate. Add a little more oil if the pot looks dry and continue browning the rest of the pork.
• Add the wine to the pot and let simmer, scraping the browned bits from the bottom, until it reduces by half, about 2 minutes. Using kitchen shears or your hands, break the tomatoes into pieces and add them, along with their liquid, to the pot. Return pork to the pot, stir in carrots and 1/2 cup water.
• Seal the pot and cook on high pressure for 45 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally.
• Using a slotted spoon, transfer pork to a serving platter. Use a fat separator to separate the fat from the juices, or just spoon the fat off the top. (There may be a lot of fat.) If the sauce seems thin, use the sauté function to simmer it until it thickens. Stir in olives, then taste the sauce and add more salt, if you like.
• Spoon the sauce over the pork, then top with chopped parsley or basil and serve.
