Description

A very delicious and satisfying green chile stew with ground beef and potatoes. Especially great with homemade tortillas!

Ingredients

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 pound ground beef
5 medium potatoes, peeled and cubed
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can stewed tomatoes
1 cup chopped green chile peppers
1/2 cup chopped onion
2 cups water
salt and ground black pepper to taste

Directions

1 Heat oil in a large stockpot over medium-high heat. Crumble beef into the pot and cook, stirring frequently, until well-browned, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain and discard grease.
2 Return the pot to the stove and add potatoes, tomatoes, chile peppers, and onion to the beef. Pour in water, stir to combine, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until flavors have blended, about 1 hour.
3 Season with salt and pepper before serving.
