This simple recipe is comfort food at its best. You can make it with any kind of meat you'd like. In this recipe, I use ground beef.
Place large pot on stovetop over medium high heat. Add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan. Fry ground beef in pan and break it up as it browns. Add diced onion and let it fry. (If making a thicker broth, add in flour at this point and let cook with meat.) Add minced garlic, Hatch chile, diced tomatoes, potatoes and seasonings. Mix well and let cook down a few minutes. Add liquid, making sure all ingredients are well covered. Let come to boil. Cover with lid and lower heat to low. Let simmer until potatoes are cooked tender. (Approx. 30 minutes) remove from heat and enjoy!
