Zuni Stew

Zuni Green Chili Stew

Thanks to Sue Mclane for sharing this recipe with me.  She got it from her mother, Barbara Earl. 

Ingredients

3 lbs boned lamb cut into cubes (or you can use another meat - I substitute pork a lot since I find not everyone likes lamb and it is expensive)
2 T olive oil
2 yellow onions chopped
5.5 cans of hominy, including the liquid
1 medium size dried red chili pepper crushed and chopped or add red pepper flakes
1 T salt
1/4 tsp balck pepper
2 cloves garlic peeled and crushed
2 tsp oregano
1/2 cup parsley or cilantro
6 green peppers washed, cored, quartered
1 qt or less water
handful of juniper berries

Dust lamb cubes with flour and brown.  Remove from skillet.  saute onions until golden.
Return meat to kettle, mix in remaining ingredients
Cover and simmer 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally.

Makes 12-14 servings.
