Makes 8 servings.

• 1 3/4 pounds pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat and cut into 1 1/2-inch pieces
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 cup chopped red onion
• 2 cups fat-free chicken broth, more if needed to thin stew
• 1 10-ounce can chopped tomatoes and green chilies
• 1 1/4 pounds sweet potatoes, peeled and cut into 1-inch cubes
• 1 teaspoon chili powder
• 1/2 teaspoon cumin
• 1 4-ounce can diced green chilies, drained
• 1 16-ounce package frozen corn
• Salt and pepper to taste


Toss pork with flour to coat.

In a large pot coated with nonstick cooking spray, brown pork over medium heat, about 5 to 7 minutes.

Add onion and cook until tender.

Add broth, tomatoes and green chilies, sweet potatoes, chili powder, cumin, diced green chilies and corn.

Bring mixture to a boil, lower heat and simmer until potatoes are tender and pork is done, approximately 45 minutes.

If stew gets too thick, add more chicken broth.

Season to taste.
