POSOLE. This soup used to be the unsigned indie band on the soup circuit - people had heard that it was good, but no one was really going out of their way to try it. Well, all of a sudden Posole is featured in not one, but TWO food magazines. Wha? When did this happen?
Anyway, as a fan of Posole before it was famous I'll share my SUPER EASY (and cheapo) Posole Recipe. If you're not a fan of the Hawt (and a total wuss) , then just cut the chilies from the recipe.
Posole
1 Rotisserie Chicken - Shredded
2 Cans Chicken Broth
2 Cloves Garlic
2 Celery Stalks - Diced
1 Onion - Diced
2 tsp Paprika
Olive Oil
1 Can Chopped Green Chilies (try Chipotle Chilies for a smoky flavor)
3 Cups Chopped Cilantro
2 Cans Hominy - drained
1 Can Diced Tomatoes
1 Can Tomato paste
1/2 Cup Lime Juice
1/2 a Green Cabbage (finely shredded)
1. Saute garlic, onion and celery in oil until the onions are translucent.
2. Add Green Chilies, paprika, cilantro - saute for a minute more.
3. Add shredded chicken, chicken broth, hominy, tomatoes (diced and paste) and lime juice. Add salt and pepper to flavor.
4. Simmer for 45 mins until hominy "pops". Add water if soup seems too thick.
5. Garnish with shredded cabbage, diced onions, and some lime wedges.
