Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, season the cubed pork shoulder with salt and black pepper. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté the Pork

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned pork and brown on all sides, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Vegetables

    Add the diced sweet potatoes, chopped chili peppers, and corn kernels to the pot. Stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Add Broth and Simmer

    Pour in the chicken broth, bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 1 hour, or until the pork is tender.

  5. 5

    Finish with Pepitas and Cilantro

    Once the pork is tender, stir in the pepitas and chopped cilantro. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed. Cook for another 5-10 minutes.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the pork stew into bowls and top each serving with a dollop of sour cream. Garnish with additional cilantro if desired.
