AUTHENTIC POZOLE VERDE RECIPE RECIPES

Steps:

• In a large pot bring the chicken stock and water to a boil. Add the chicken breasts and simmer over very low heat until they’re tender and cooked through, about 25 minutes. Transfer the chicken breasts to a plate and shred the meat.
• In a blender or food processor combine the halved tomatillos with the quartered onion, poblanos and jalapeños, smashed garlic, chopped cilantro and oregano. Pulse until coarsely chopped; stopping occasionally and scraping down the side. With the machine on, add 1 cup of the broth and puree until smooth. Season with salt and pepper.
• In a large deep skillet, heat the vegetable oil until shimmering. Add the tomatillo puree and cook over medium heat, until the sauce turns a deep green, stirring occasionally, about 12 minutes.
• Pour the green sauce into the broth in the casserole. Add the hominy and bring to a simmer over moderate heat. Add the shredded chicken to the stew, season with salt and pepper and cook just until heated through.
• Serve the pozole in deep bowls, topping with onion, avocado, sour cream, tortilla chips and lime wedges if desired. We just usually eat it with a sprinkling of tortilla strips.

Steps:

• Place hominy into a large pot. Add chicken, garlic, onion, and salt. Cover with water.
• Cook for 1 hour. Remove onion and garlic from the pot and discard. Remove chicken and set aside.
• Place tomatillo salsa in a blender. Add onion, serrano chili, roasted poblano, cilantro, radish leaves, pepitas, and garlic.
• Pour 2 cups of water and blend until you’ll have a smooth sauce.
• Add the green sauce to the pot with hominy and allow to simmer for 20 minutes. Adjust with salt and turn off the heat.
• Shred the chicken and place it in a bowl (read note 2).
• Make the spicy salsa verde (optional)
