Ingredients:

• 2 lbs boneless pork shoulder
• 1/3 cup all-purpose flour
• 1 1/2 tsp salt
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1 large onion, chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1/4 cup chopped parsley
• 1 tsp caraway seeds
• 1 bay leaf
• 1 cup chicken broth
• 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
• 1 tbsp brown sugar

Instructions:

1. Prep the Pork: Begin by coating the pork pieces with a mixture of flour, salt, and pepper. This step will help to add a delicious crust and thicken the stew as it cooks.

2. Brown the Pork: Heat a Dutch oven over medium-high heat and add a splash of oil. Once hot, brown the pork pieces on all sides until they develop a rich, golden crust. This process helps to lock in the flavors and juices of the meat.

3. Add Aromatics: Next, add the chopped onions and minced garlic to the Dutch oven. Cook and stir for about 5 minutes until the onions become translucent and fragrant, infusing the stew with savory depth.

4. Deglaze the Pot: Pour off any excess drippings from the Dutch oven, ensuring that you retain the flavorful browned bits at the bottom. These caramelized remnants will add complexity to the stew.

5. Combine Ingredients: Stir in the chopped parsley, caraway seeds, bay leaf, chicken broth, red wine vinegar, and brown sugar. This aromatic blend of ingredients will imbue the stew with layers of flavor, from the earthy notes of the caraway seeds to the subtle sweetness of the brown sugar.

6. Simmer to Perfection: Cover the Dutch oven and reduce the heat to medium-low. Allow the stew to simmer gently for 1 to 1 1/4 hours, or until the pork is incredibly tender and the flavors have melded together beautifully. Stir the stew occasionally to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.

7. Serve and Enjoy: Once the stew is cooked to perfection, ladle it into bowls and garnish with additional fresh parsley, if desired. Serve piping hot alongside your favorite Irish beer and a generous dollop of creamy mashed potatoes or Colcannon for an authentic taste of Ireland.
