Pork Poblano and Squash Stew - A Bowl of Spicy Comfort

Intermediate

Pork Poblano and Sqush Stew

This Pork Poblano and Squash Stew is a unique combination that's not for the faint of heart! It's a hearty and robust celebration of bold flavors featuring tender pork, smoky poblano peppers, and sweet squash, all simmered in a broth infused with an impressive array of spices.


The warmth of cumin, coriander, and turmeric intertwines with the earthy sweetness of cinnamon, creating a complex base for the star ingredients. It then gets a fiery kick from both regular and spicy smoked paprika, along with a pinch of red pepper flakes for good measure.


Imagine chunks of succulent pork, their edges slightly crisped from browning, mingling with soft squash and poblano peppers. Each spoonful is an explosion of flavor, a dance of sweet, smoky, and spicy notes that will warm you from the inside out.


This is the kind of stew that chases away chills on a blustery day, the kind that sticks to your ribs and leaves you feeling completely satisfied. It's a bowl of comfort with a fiery twist.

If we don't eat pork, what would be a good substitute (but still be a successful dish)? We est chicken and beef. Thank you.

About Me

Hi!  I'm Jen

Cooking is a passion passed down from both of my grandmothers to my mother and then to my sister and me.  

Throughout my career, I was always drawn back to food.  I've learned from experienced chefs, apprenticed with professional bakers, and tasted coffee with international experts.

Today I'm sharing those experiences with you.
