Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Meat

    In a large pot, add the pork shoulder (or chicken) and cover with chicken broth. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer for about 1.5 hours, or until the meat is tender.

  2. 2

    Add Aromatics

    Once the meat is tender, remove it from the pot and shred it. In the same pot, add chopped onion, minced garlic, oregano, cumin, red chili powder, salt, and black pepper. Sauté for about 5 minutes until the onion becomes translucent.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Return the shredded meat to the pot, add the hominy, and stir well. If using dried hominy, ensure it has been soaked and cooked according to package instructions before adding.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Soup

    Pour in additional chicken broth if necessary to reach desired consistency. Simmer for another 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Ladle the posole into bowls and garnish with lime wedges, sliced radishes, shredded cabbage, and diced avocado as desired.
