This hearty stew builds flavor through careful browning of the meat and layering of vegetables. The key to success is taking time with the initial browning process and allowing the pork to become tender through slow cooking.

This stew can be made ahead and reheated gently on the stovetop. If it thickens too much during storage, thin with additional chicken broth when reheating.
