Vegetarian Posole with Beans and Poblano Peppers

Omar Parker

Report

A full-bodied Mexican soup that gets its rich flavor from peppers, warm spices and lots of hominy. Typically meat-filled, we've replaced the meat with pinto beans and veggies so it's still hearty and delicious.

Instructions

To a large pot over medium heat, add the olive oil. When hot, add the onion and salt. Sauté until translucent, 3-4 minutes. Add the poblano peppers, zucchini and carrots, and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cinnamon stick, oregano, ground chipotle chile, cumin and coriander. Cook, stirring constantly, until spices are fragrant, about 30 seconds.
Add the hominy and beans to the pot. Stir to warm through and then add the tomatoes and vegetable broth. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil and then reduce heat to medium-low. Simmer, uncovered, for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Remove cinnamon stick, then stir in the lime juice and season to taste with additional salt and ground chipotle chile if desired.
