Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Ingredients

    Dice the pork shoulder into 1-inch cubes. Finely chop the onion and garlic cloves. Drain and rinse the canned hominy.

Cooking

  1. 2

    Sear the Pork

    In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the cubed pork shoulder and sear on all sides until browned, about 5-7 minutes.

  2. 3

    Sauté Onion and Garlic

    Add the diced onion and minced garlic to the pot. Cook until the onion is translucent, about 3-4 minutes.

  3. 4

    Add Spices

    Stir in the cumin, chili powder, salt, black pepper, and bay leaves. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.

  4. 5

    Add Liquids and Hominy

    Pour in the chicken broth and add the diced tomatoes along with the drained hominy. Stir to combine.

  5. 6

    Simmer the Stew

    Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Cover and let it simmer for about 1.5 to 2 hours, until the pork is tender.

Serving
