To add to my last comment.. I've made this chile verde a few times.. I like to add roasted jalapenos, at least a tbsp. of cumin, 1 large or 2 small bay leaves, and even a tbsp. of red chile powder (chile molido) to the onions and garlic.

I searched and searched for what I felt would be the right recipe to make my first ever pot of green chili. This looked like a good one so I made it and my family and I LOVED it! Very good, very good!

Very similar to the original Georgetown green chile stew! Add shredded queso blanco and drained black beans inside the flour tortillas and ladle hot stew over more cheese and broil for 60 seconds.

This chile verde is close to the one I have been eating for the last 48yrs. If you cook a steak on the grill med rare and pour the chile verde over it you will have a treat.
