Easy Pork Posole image

I've made a number of posoles over the years; this is a new favorite. I really like the addition of cornmeal as a thickener, which also gives the finished product an extra helping of "corniness." On the table can include extra lime wedges and chopped cilantro, thinly-sliced radishes, and shredded cabbage. From allrecipes.com

Time 1h

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 lb pork loin, chopped
salt & fresh ground pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 onion, diced
2 tablespoons water
4 garlic cloves, minced
2 serrano peppers, minced
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 teaspoons ground coriander
2 cups water
2 cups chicken broth
1 (14 1/2 ounce) can diced tomatoes
1/4 cup cornmeal
2 (15 ounce) cans hominy, drained
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped
1 lime, juiced

Steps:

  • Season pork with salt and pepper.
  • Heat oil in a pot over medium-high heat. Cook and stir pork in hot oil until browned, 5 to 10 minutes. Transfer pork to a plate and return pot to heat.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low. Cook and stir onion and 2 tablespoons water in hot pot until water has evaporated and onion is soft and golden brown, 5 to 7 minutes. Add garlic, serrano peppers, cumin, and coriander; cook and stir until fragrant, about 1 minute.
  • Stir 2 cups water, chicken broth, and tomatoes into onion mixture. Whisk in cornmeal and bring to a simmer over high heat, stirring often; add hominy, pork, salt, and pepper to taste. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and hominy mixture thickens, about 30 minutes. Stir in cilantro and lime juice.
