I usually make Chile Verde with pork, but I recently had some buffalo thawed and wanted verde, so... :) I basically used the same favorite easy recipe that I have for the pork version, and it worked quite well. Yum!
Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs buffalo, cubed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon butter
1 large fresh yellow onions, minced or diced or 1/2 cup dried onion flakes
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 (7 ounce) can chopped mild green chilies
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4 teaspoon dried ancho chile powder
1 (16 ounce) jar la victoria salsa verde
1/2 cup water or 1/2 cup chicken broth or 1/2 cup mexican beer or 1/2 cup tequila (i used tequila)
Directions:
1. Cut meat into 1/2-inch cubes; season cubes with salt and pepper.
2. In a large, heavy pan with lid, brown the cubes well in oil and melted butter.
3. Add the onion and garlic and saute for about 5 minutes.
4. Add the remaining ingredients, cover, and simmer for at least 90 minutes, stirring frequently; add more water (or broth or beer) during cooking if necessary to achieve desired sauce texture.
