Ingredients
Scale
2 lbs of pork shoulder or chicken thighs
2 cans (15 oz each) of hominy
4 garlic cloves, minced
3 red chili peppers, dried or fresh
1 large onion, chopped
1 teaspoon of dried oregano
Salt to taste
Fresh cilantro for garnish
Lime wedges for serving
Sliced radishes for garnish
Instructions
In a large pot, add your pork shoulder or chicken thighs along with 10 cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium heat and reduce to a simmer. Skim off any impurities that rise to the surface.
Once the meat is tender (approximately 60 minutes), add the garlic, chopped onion, and oregano to the pot.
If using dried chili peppers, soak them in warm water for about 15 minutes. Blend the softened chilies with a bit of the broth to create a smooth paste.
Add the hominy and chili paste to the pot. Stir well and season with salt to taste. Allow this mixture to simmer for an additional 10 minutes.
Carefully serve the Pozole in bowls. Top with fresh cilantro, lime wedges, and sliced radishes.
