Versatile Chile Verde

Recipe #347558 | 1½ hours | 30 min prep | add private note

By: Leahferne

This recipe can be made with chicken, pork, beef or even Portabella mushrooms making this one of the most diverse dishes I have had the pleasure to make. Just make sure you have the appropriate bouillon. It is always a hit at our table and is excellent with refried beans and rice or made into quesadillas. It also freezes well to have on a later date. Enjoy this recipe and happy cooking
