To make the Easy Pork Stew, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and add the cubed pork and 1 chopped onion. Cook and stir the pork until browned on all sides, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer the pork to a bowl and set aside.
Add 4 cups chicken broth, tomatoes along with their juices, ½ teaspoon dried rosemary, ½ teaspoon dried oregano, and salt and black pepper to taste. Stir, scraping any brown bits from the bottom of the pot.
Return the pork to the pot and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer, covered, until the pork is fairly tender, about 1 hour.
Add the diced potatoes, sweet potatoes, carrots, and 1 cup sliced mushrooms. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover and cook for 30 minutes or until the vegetables are tender.
Remove the lid and stir in 1 cup peas. Simmer, uncovered, for another 10 minutes.
Garnish with fresh herbs, if you wish, and serve.
