Picked up some fresh Hatch chiles at HEB. Wifey doesn't care for it, and she's also away for a few days, so I'm a lookin' for something awesome to make with these coveted peppers! Anyone have a nice chile stew recipe?

Here is one I made:

 
Hatch chilis are showing up here, too. Gonna be on sale for $1.49/lb starting tomorrow at Kroger. Don't know if that's a good price or not, but I'm getting them and cooking something from the ideas posted above...

That’s a good price. I buy by the bushel and pay 35-40 dollars they weigh 20-25#. Roasting costs more if they do it.
 
Place I get mine doesn't charge for roasting (at least last year they didn't).
I do give the guy a tip for doing it.
 
Love hatch’s, just got stocked back up this last weekend. Maybe it’s just our area, not sure but haven’t seen red ones… we just have the green here.
 
Eric, thanks for the info… learn something new here quite often. I’ve only seen the green ones around here. Thanks again.
And the red ones will roast fine but are very difficult to peel, not impossible just compared to green ones. They red ones are traditionally laced together on a string and hung to make a ristra (look at my avatar) we dry those in open air and sunshine to then make red Chile powder and pods.
