Authentic Colorado Green Chili Recipe

Ingredients

• 1 pound Hatch chile peppers
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
• 1 (14.5 ounce) can diced tomatoes
• 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
• 5 cups vegetable broth
• 2 tablespoons ground cumin
• 2 tablespoons chili powder, or to taste
• 1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

1. Position oven rack 6 inches from the broiler and preheat.
2. Cover a baking sheet with foil and spread the Hatch chile peppers evenly.
3. Broil, flipping once, until the pepper skins are blackened and blistered, about 6-8 minutes. Transfer to a bowl and cover tightly with plastic wrap to steam for 20 minutes. Peel, seed, and dice the peppers.
4. Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion and garlic, sautéing until softened, around 5 minutes. Stir in the diced chile peppers and tomatoes, cooking until heated through, approximately 5 minutes. Sprinkle flour into the pot and stir.
5. Pour broth into the pot, then add cumin, chili powder, and salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
