Ingredients
- 2 lbs pork shoulder cut into 1-2 inch pieces
- 1 large onion diced
- 1 bell pepper diced
- 4 cloves of garlic minced
- 2 jalapeños one diced (remove seeds for less heat) and one sliced for garnish
- 2 cans of hominy 15.5 oz each, drained and rinsed
- 1 can of Ro-Tel 10 oz
- 2 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tbsp ground cumin
- 2 tsp ground ancho chiles
- salt and pepper to taste
- 6 cups chicken broth
- chopped cilantro sliced radishes, and quartered limes for garnish
Instructions
- Season the pork shoulder pieces with salt, pepper, chili powder, cumin, and ground ancho chiles.
- In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat some oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork to the pot and brown on all sides. This may need to be done in batches. Once browned, remove the pork and set it aside.
- In the same pot, add the onion, bell pepper, and diced jalapeño. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the garlic and sauté for another minute until it becomes fragrant.
- Return the browned pork to the pot. Add the drained hominy and the Ro-Tel. Stir everything together.
- Pour in the chicken broth. The broth should cover the ingredients; if not, add enough water to cover. Bring the soup to a boil.
- Once boiling, reduce the heat to low and let the soup simmer for about 2-3 hours, or until the pork is very tender.
- Taste the soup and adjust the seasonings as needed.
- Serve the pozole in bowls, garnished with sliced radishes, sliced jalapeño, chopped cilantro, and a wedge of lime on the side.
