For a richer flavor, consider searing the pork loin in a separate skillet before adding it to the Instant Pot. Hatch chiles can vary in heat levels. Adjust the quantity to your preference. For a milder stew, remove more seeds and membranes. If the stew is too thick, add a splash more chicken stock to reach your desired consistency. A dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of cotija cheese makes a delightful garnish.

Follow The Directions
01
StepEngage the 'Sauté' function on your Instant Pot. Introduce the diced pancetta and render for approximately 1 minute, releasing its savory essence. Add the cubed pork loin, diced onion, and shallot. Sauté until the pork begins to brown and the onion becomes translucent, around 2-3 minutes. Introduce olive oil if the ingredients threaten to adhere to the pot. (Total time: ~5 minutes)
02
StepIncorporate the potatoes and Hatch green chiles, stirring continuously for 5 minutes to awaken their flavors. Introduce the corn, chicken stock, salt, and pepper. Ensure all ingredients are well combined. Disengage the 'Sauté' mode. (Total time: ~10 minutes)
03
StepSecure the lid, ensuring it's properly locked. Select the 'High Pressure' setting and set the timer for 35 minutes. Allow the Instant Pot to naturally build pressure (estimated 10-15 minutes).
04
StepOnce the timer concludes, carefully perform a natural pressure release, allowing approximately 15 minutes for the pressure to dissipate completely. Unlock and carefully remove the lid.
05
StepRe-engage the 'Sauté' mode. Gently stir in the half-and-half and heat through, ensuring it doesn't boil, approximately 5-7 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper as needed. (Total time: ~12 minutes)
