  • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
  • 4 pound boneless pork, cut into 3/4-inch cubes
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 can (4 ounces) chopped green chilies
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

DIRECTIONS

In a Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium-high. Add 1 pound of pork; cook and stir until lightly browned. Remove and set aside. Repeat with remaining meat, adding more oil as needed. Return all of the meat to Dutch oven. Sprinkle flour over meat; mix well. Add chilies, cumin, salt, pepper, garlic, cilantro or parsley, salsa and chicken broth.
