Ingredients

• 2 lbs pork shoulder (boneless, cubed)
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 tsp black pepper
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 medium yellow onion (diced)
• 3 cloves garlic cloves (minced)
• 4 cups chicken broth
• 14.5 oz diced tomatoes (canned, with juices)
• 2 tbsp tomato paste
• 1.5 cups frozen lima beans
• 1.5 cups frozen corn kernels
• 2 medium russet potatoes (peeled and diced)
• 2 tsp Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tsp paprika
• 0.5 tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley (chopped, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Season the pork shoulder cubes with salt and black pepper.

Step 2

In a large Dutch oven or heavy-bottomed pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork in batches, searing on all sides until golden brown. Remove the pork and set aside.

Step 3

In the same pot, add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until softened. Add the minced garlic, cooking for an additional 1 minute, until fragrant.

Step 4

Pour in the chicken broth, scraping the bottom of the pot to deglaze. Add the diced tomatoes (with their juices) and tomato paste, stirring to combine.

Step 5

Return the seared pork to the pot. Add the lima beans, corn kernels, and diced potatoes. Stir well.

Step 6

Season the stew with Worcestershire sauce, paprika, and red pepper flakes if using. Stir to incorporate all the flavors.

Step 7

Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let it simmer for 75-90 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the pork is tender and the vegetables are fully cooked.

Step 8

Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper, if needed.

Step 9

Serve hot in bowls, garnished with fresh parsley. Enjoy!
