POZOLE VERDE DE POLLO (GREEN MEXICAN HOMINY AND CHICKEN SOUP) RECIPE
If you've ever cooked that great Rick Bayless recipe for pozole verde, the Mexican meat and hominy soup flavored with green chiles and tomatillos, you'd know that it's a beast. The truth is, unless you've got the day off, cooking pozole on a Thursday is nothing more than a sueño imposible. My goal was to come up with a recipe that is not only delicious, but fast enough that it can reasonably be made on a Thursday night. The recipe I came up with may or may not be authentic, but it sure as heck is delicious.

POZOLE VERDE (MEXICAN HOMINY AND CHICKEN)
A traditional Mexican pozole as printed in our local newspaper today. Nixtamal is dried corn cooked with food-grade lime until it can be hulled. The softened, cooked corn can then be ground into masa for tortillas or tamales. Or it is left whole and cooked further to make pozole by putting the corn into a pot, adding water, and simmering until the kernels "pop" open. Canned hominy may be substituted, but since it's processed slightly differently the flavor isn't quite identical. Mexican-style canned hominy brands such as Juanita's and El Mexicano are processed in the traditional manner. Cooking time may be reduced if canned hominy is used. Supermarkets that stock Latino foods usually carry both canned Mexican-style hominy and fresh nixtamal, which is usually packed in 2 to 5 pound bags and found in the refrigerated section. It's also available at most tortillerias.

Steps:
- Rinse nixtamal thoroughly in a strainer.
- Pour into large Dutch oven or heavy lidded pot, add 4 quarts water and bring to boil.
- Simmer gently, loosely covered about 2 hours, or until tender.
- Do not allow to boil dry (enough water should remain at end of cooking time to keep nixtamal moist).
- While corn is cooking, rinse the chicken and place in a pot with 2 quarts water and 2 teaspoons salt.
- Bring chicken to boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer 1 hour.
- Strain and measure broth, adding water if necessary to equal 8 cups.
- Shred meat, discarding skin and bones.
- Set aside broth and chicken.
- When nixtamal is tender, remove it to bowl.
- Rinse the pot and return cooked nixtamal to pot.
- Wash poblano chiles and discard stems and seeds.
- Cut into chunks.
- Wash cilantro and cut off tips of stems.
- Place chiles and cilantro in blender with a cup of water and whirl.
- Slice one of the onions.
- Add chile-cilantro puree, chicken broth, sliced onion, garlic cloves and 4 1/2 teaspoons of salt to nixtamal.
- Stir to combine, bring to boil, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
- Add chicken and cook 15 more minutes.
- Dice remaining onion and place in small bowl.
- Arrange lettuce, serrano chiles, lime wedges and oregano in separate bowls, and crisp tortillas in basket or bowl.
- To serve, ladle pozole into large soup bowls and garnish with lettuce, chile slices, lime juice and oregano and tortillas.

CHICKEN POSOLE VERDE
It is more authentic using chicken breast halves with bones and skin but I wanted to lighten it up a bit. You can top with finely chopped onion, diced avocado, sour cream, tortilla chips and lime wedges- if desired.

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.
POZOLE VERDE CON POLLO (GREEN CHICKEN-AND-HOMINY STEW)
My pozole verde uses green chiles, cilantro, scallion and tomatillos to build a bright and flavorful green broth for this rich chicken stew. To create a velvety texture and depth of flavor, I add pepitas (green pumpkin seeds) before blending the base to thicken it. Using shredded rotisserie chicken cuts down on cooking time, making this stew perfect for a weeknight dinner.

Steps:
- Heat the bacon fat in a large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add the poblanos, jalapenos, scallion whites, pepitas, garlic, salt, cumin, coriander and allspice. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are just tender, about 5 minutes. Add the tomatillos and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until they soften and begin to brown, 5 to 6 minutes.
- Remove from the heat. Working in batches, transfer some of the vegetable mixture to a blender, add some of the chicken broth and puree. Transfer the pureed mixture to a large bowl and continue until all the vegetables and broth have been blended. Return the mixture to the pot and add the hominy. Place over high heat, bring to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover and simmer until the flavors come together, about 30 minutes.
- Meanwhile, combine the cilantro, scallion greens and 2 cups of water in the blender (you don't
- need to rinse it out!) and puree until completely smooth.
- Add the chicken and the cilantro puree to the stew, remove it from the heat and stir to combine. Let sit until the chicken is heated through. Serve the pozole with sliced onion, sliced radish, sliced avocado, crushed chicharrones, oregano and lime wedges.

- Heat oil in a large heavy pot or Dutch oven over medium. Cook yellow onion and garlic, stirring occasionally, until very tender, 12–15 minutes. Add coriander, cumin, and ½ tsp. oregano and cook, stirring constantly, until very fragrant, about 1 minute.
- Add chicken and 12 cups water. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered and reducing heat as needed to maintain a very gentle simmer, until chicken is cooked through (if it isn’t completely submerged, you can turn it once or twice) and legs wiggle easily in their joints, 40–50 minutes. At this point, you can let chicken and broth cool, then chill overnight.
- Meanwhile, preheat oven to 425◦. Spread tomatillos, poblano chiles, serrano chiles, and peppers on a large rimmed baking sheet. Roast, tossing once or twice, until tomatillos are tender and peppers are browned and collapsing, 30–40 minutes. Let cool.
- Transfer chicken to a cutting board, reserving broth, and let cool until easy to handle. Remove meat from bones and shred into bite-size pieces. Discard bones.
