With Saint Patrick’s Day upon us it strikes me as the perfect opportunity to update my venison green chile stew<\/a> recipe with new stick-to-your-ribs dish that I prepared for friends last weekend. Why? Is today’s recipe Irish-influenced? Slow cooked in Guinness Stout<\/a>? Neither! And the flavor profile is decidedly southwestern, not Irish. But how many opportunities are there to trot out an exceedingly *green*<\/em><\/strong> stew? And what better booze-buffer than Elk Green Chile Stew?!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Here\u2019s how I introduced my venison green chili stew (aka \u201cgreen chili stew\u201d) recipe back February 25, 2014.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n This time of year, green chile stew is an ideal core-warning, vitamin rich comfort food. If you\u2019re only familiar with red chile, it\u2019s time to try something new. The flavor is totally different, and you just might change your chile preferences. (Source: Venison Green Chile Stew<\/a><\/em>)<\/p>\r\n<\/blockquote>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n My 25+ year connection to Santa Fe<\/a> underpins a hankering for green chile stew whenever conditions call for comfort food. This St. Patrick\u2019s Day \u2014 cold and blustery with intermittent rain and a surplus of snow, slush, ice, and mid \u2014 is precisely when I crave a steaming bowl! Fortunately, I had just enough leftover to sate my appetite. The recipe below, like all stars really, gets better each day!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Consider the following recipe a rough guide, not a set of rules. (Ditto for all<\/em> recipes, mine or otherwise!)<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Ingredients<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Preparation<\/strong><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n [I prepared this elk green chile stew recipe in an Instant Pot<\/a> pressure cooker, but these directions can be adapted to crock and range cooking.]<\/em><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Heat olive oil in pressure cooker with lid off on low saut\u00e9 setting. Add onions and garlic, stirring over low heat until the onions become soft and translucent. Add venison, and break up any large lumps of meat. Continue stirring and heating until ground meat is fully cooked and mixed with onions and garlic. Add remaining ingredients (except salt and pepper) and mix thoroughly. Secure pressure cooker lid, and cook under high pressure for 20 minutes. Allow pressure to release slowly, and change to slow cooker mode. Set temperature and timer for three hours (high) or five hours (low). Stir and check for adequate moisture from time to time. Salt and pepper to taste. Enjoy!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n Let\u2019s dedicate this special Saint Patrick\u2019s day twist on traditional, New Mexican green chili stew to the legendary Irish elk (Megaloceros giganteus<\/em>). Sadly, no longer with us, this handsome specimen seems an appropriate subject of celebration on this holiday. I have relied upon a unique Santa Fe butcher, Beck & Bulow<\/a>, to source this 100% free range grass fed and grass finished ground elk<\/a> that was quickly and conveniently shipped to me in Essex.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n I should also mention that the Hatch green chile<\/a> in the photograph above also originates in New Mexico. Although canned and jarred roasted green chile wouldn\u2019t be our first choice if we were in Santa Fe right now, it certainly is convenient when we\u2019re on the Adirondack Coast<\/a>.<\/p>\r\n Here are some snapshots from my preparation of the ultimate Saint Patrick’s Day feast: elk green chile stew. Bon app\u00e9tit. Buen provecho. Bain sult as do bhia.
