Pork Chile Verde

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 25 min. Cook: 6-1/2 hours YIELD: 8 servings.
Pork slowly stews with jalapenos, onion, green enchilada sauce and spices in this flavor-packed Mexican dish. It's wonderful on its own or stuffed in a warm tortilla with sour cream, grated cheese or olives on the side. —Kimberly Burke, Chico, California
