Directions

Meanwhile, heat oil in a Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add chicken thighs; cook until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate and let cool for 10 minutes before shredding with 2 forks. Do not wipe the pot.

Add onion to the drippings in the pot; cook until softened, 3 to 5 minutes. Stir in garlic, oregano, coriander, cumin and crushed red pepper; cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 1 minute, adjusting the heat as needed. Add broth; cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to scrape up any browned bits on the bottom of the pan, for 1 minute. Stir in the reserved chopped poblanos, green chiles, the mashed hominy and the remaining whole hominy and the chicken; bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer; cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced and flavors have combined, 10 to 15 minutes. Divide the soup among 4 bowls. Garnish with radishes, avocado and/or cilantro and serve with lime wedges, if desired.

Nutrition Facts(per serving)

  • Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
