Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams pork shoulder (cut into bite-sized cubes)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 medium onion (chopped)
- 3 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
- 400 grams canned diced tomatoes
- 2 tablespoons tomato paste
- 250 milliliters chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 2 medium carrots (sliced)
- 300 grams baby potatoes (halved)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons parsley (chopped, for garnish)
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat.
Add the pork cubes to the pot and sear for 3-5 minutes, turning to brown all sides. Remove the pork and set aside.
In the same pot, add the chopped onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the canned diced tomatoes, tomato paste, and chicken broth to the pot. Stir well to combine.
Season the mixture with paprika, dried oregano, salt, and black pepper.
Return the seared pork to the pot, along with the sliced carrots and halved baby potatoes. Stir to coat the vegetables and pork in the tomato mixture.
Bring the stew to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and cover the pot with a lid.
Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pork is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
Taste the stew and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve warm, garnished with chopped parsley.
