Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pork

    In a large pot, add the pork shoulder and cover it with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 1.5 hours or until the pork is tender. Remove the pork, shred it, and set aside.

  2. 2

    Sauté Aromatics

    In the same pot, add a bit of oil if needed. Sauté the chopped onion and minced garlic until fragrant and translucent.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the shredded pork back into the pot along with the hominy, chicken broth, oregano, cumin, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.

  4. 4

    Simmer the Posole

    Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 30-40 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Ladle the posole into bowls and garnish with fresh cilantro, lime wedges, sliced radishes, and avocado. Serve hot.
