Quick Posole
Ingredients
- 2 (7 ounce) cans whole green chilies, rough chopped, remove seeds if you want less heat ⓘ
- 6 -8 garlic cloves ⓘ
- 1 onion, large
- 2 (14 1/2 ounce) cans white hominy ⓘ
- 1 1/2 lbs boneless skinless chicken thighs ⓘ
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt ⓘ
- 2 teaspoons dried Mexican oregano (regular works fine) ⓘ
- 2 tablespoons olive oil ⓘ
- 3 cups chicken broth, heated in the microwave ⓘ
- 3 tablespoons ground red new mexico peppers ⓘ
- garnishes ⓘ
Instructions
- Mince garlic finely.
- Dice onion (you can do both of those in a food processor quite easily).
- Drain hominy, set aside.
- Cut chicken into 1 inch or so chunks, toss with salt and 1 tsp of the oregano, then in a large pan, saute over high heat in the olive oil for about three minutes.
- Reduce heat to medium, add onions, oregano, and garlic to pan; saute until softened, about 4 minutes.
- Add ground chiles to pan, saute a minute or so, then add the chicken broth, hominy, then simmer for about ten minutes.
- Stir in the green chiles, heat through and serve.
- I prefer to stir in the tomatoes when I put in the hominy, or add a can of chopped fire roasted diced tomatoes to the stew.
