Using an already cooked chicken makes this a quick meal. It is a hearty one dish dinner.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 medium onions, chopped
8 garlic cloves, minced
1/3 cup tomato paste
3 tablespoons chili powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
4 (14 1/2 ounce) cans reduced-sodium chicken broth
4 (15 ounce) cans white hominy, drained
6 3/4 cups shredded cooked chicken (2 pounds) or 6 3/4 cups turkey meat (2 pounds)
coarse salt and pepper
assorted garnishes such as diced avocado, thinly sliced radishes, and crumbled tortilla chips (optional)
Directions:
1. Heat oil in a 5-quart saucepan over medium heat. Add onions; cook until translucent, 3 to 5 minutes. Add garlic, tomato paste, chili powder, and oregano; cook, stirring constantly, until evenly distributed.
2. Add 4 cups water, broth, and hominy. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until fragrant, about 30 minutes.
3. Stir in chicken; season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cook until heated through. (When freezing, cool completely before transferring to airtight containers.).
4. To serve, divide among bowls, and garnish as desired.
