We’ve used canned hominy in place of traditional dried posole in this comforting New Mexican dish. For a spicy version, leave the seeds in the peppers.
Ingredients
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 large white onion, chopped
5 anaheim or jalapeño peppers, seeded and chopped
7 garlic cloves, chopped
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
10 cups lower-sodium chicken broth
2 cups shredded Kalua Pork
2 (15 1/2-ounce) cans hominy
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Garnishes: Chopped avocado, red onion, baked corn tortillas, crumbled Queso Blanco (Mexican) cheese or shredded Monterey Jack, and limes
Instructions
1. Heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat until hot. Add onion, peppers and garlic; sauté 10 minutes. Add oregano and cumin; sauté 5 minutes.
2. Add chicken broth, pork, hominy and cilantro and cook until thoroughly heated. Ladle into soup bowls; serve with avocado, corn tortillas, cheese and a squeeze of lime juice. Serves 7.
