Chicken Pozole Rojo
Report
This Red Chicken Pozole is a comforting dream in a bowl. Filled with spicy chiles, white hominy, and topped with tons of crunchy veggies. This traditional Mexican soup is fancy enough for company and easy enough to serve on a casual weeknight.

Ingredients
- 10 cups water
- 2 pounds chicken breast
- 1 small white onion quartered
- 2 garlic cloves peeled
- 2 teaspoons salt divided

Instructions
- In a 6-quart caldero place chicken, onion, garlic, and 1 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil and then lower heat to medium-low for 20 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink.
- In a large bowl filled with hot water add dried chiles until the chiles have softened about 10 to 15 minutes. Discard liquid.
- Shred the chicken into small pieces.
- In a blender combine 1 cup of the cooked chicken broth with onions, garlic, and softened chiles with 1 teaspoon of salt and blend. Reserve the remaining chicken broth.
- Add the shredded chicken, blended sauce, and White Hominy to the caldero with reserved broth and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes. If necessary, season with salt.

Notes
- Nutrition does not include toppings/garnishes.
- Instant Pot Directions: I recommend cooking the chicken breast in the Instant Pot first following the Instant Pot directions in this post. Once the chicken is cooked and shredded, add the broth, red chile sauce, and the White Hominy. Set the Instant Pot to cook at high pressure for 5 minutes. Release the pressure manually.
