Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large onion chopped
- 1 pound pork tenderloin
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- 1 pound potatoes pealed and chopped in 1 inch pieces
- 1 medium red bell pepper chopped
- 1 cup diced tomatoes canned
- hot sauce to taste
- ½ teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 tablespoon paprika
- salt and pepper to taste
- 3 cups water
- fresh parsley chopped
Instructions
- In a large non stick skillet heat the oil over medium heat. When the oil is hot enough, add the chopped onion and cook until onion is translucent.
- Add the pork and garlic to the onion. Add the potatoes and red pepper to the skillet.
- At this point we just want to cook the meat until no longer pink, for about 5 to 7 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Add the tomatoes, hot sauce, paprika, cumin, salt, pepper and water to the skillet and stir. Bring to a boil then turn down the heat and cover with a lid and let simmer for about 20 minutes, or until the potatoes are cooked through. Make sure to gently stir occasionally.
- Garnish with chopped parsley and sour cream if preferred.
Notes
- Pork Tenderloin Alternatives: While pork tenderloin is ideal for its tenderness and flavor, feel free to substitute with chicken thighs or beef chunks for a different take on this classic stew.
- Potato Choice: Yukon Gold or red potatoes work best as they hold their shape well during cooking. However, any type of potato you have on hand can be used, just be aware of varying cooking times.
- Spice Adjustments: The level of heat in this stew is adaptable. Start with a small amount of hot sauce and adjust according to your taste preference. Add more as needed for extra spice.
- Stew Consistency: If the stew is too thick, add a little more water or broth to achieve your desired consistency. If it's too thin, let it simmer a bit longer with the lid off to thicken.
- Make Ahead: This stew tastes even better the next day as the flavors have more time to meld. It's a perfect make-ahead meal for busy weeknights or meal prep.
