I grew up in New Mexico where Hatch green chili finds its way into every meal and every recipe. Did you know that New Mexico is the only state in the USA that has an official State Question? In 1996, the state legislature declared “Red or Green?” as the State Question, referring to the question always asked when ordering New Mexican cuisine. My answer is always, green! My favorite source of Hatch green chili is 505 Southwestern‘s Roasted Green Chile since its ingredients are green chile with a little lime juice and garlic salt, and nothing else. I keep a quart on the pantry shelf or in the fridge all the time. Here is an easy recipe for green chile sauce to go on our pulled pork enchiladas.

Fire up enough charcoal to fit underneath any size camp Dutch oven. I used a 12-inch but any size will work. Place the oven over the hot coals, add butter and onion. Sauté for several minutes until onion starts to turn translucent. Add garlic and stir for a minute.
Add flour and stir constantly for 1 to 2 minutes until flour is well incorporated into the onions.
Stir in cumin, chipotle, and chicken stock and let simmer until sauce thickens up, about 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in green chile.
Remove from heat. Stir in sour cream. Add salt and pepper to taste.
