SO Southwestern Pork Stew

Southwestern Pork Stew

Ingredients:

1 ¾ Pounds pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat and cut into 1-inch pieces

¼ Cup all-purpose flour

1 Cup chopped red onion

2 Cups fat free chicken broth, more if needed to thin stew

1 (10-ounce) can chopped tomatoes and green chilies

1 ¼ Pounds sweet potatoes (yams), peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes or 2 (15 oz.) cans sweet potatoes drained

1 Teaspoon chili powder

½ Teaspoon cumin

1 (4-ounce) can diced green chilies, drained

1 (16-ounce) package frozen corn

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Toss pork with flour to coat. In a large pot coated with nonstick cooking spray, brown pork over medium heat about 5 to 7 minutes. Add onions and cook until tender. Add broth, tomatoes and green chilies, sweet potatoes, chili powder, cumin, diced green chilies and corn. Bring mixture to a boil, lower heat and simmer until potatoes are tender and pork is done, approximately 45 minutes. If stew gets too thick, add more chicken broth. Season to taste.

Variations: If using canned yams, cut in small chunks and stir in at the end of cooking.
