Chicken And Hominy Soup With Cilantro And Lime Recipes

Steps:

• Place chicken, broth, potatoes, carrots and coriander in large pot and bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until chicken and vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, about 40 minutes. Add hominy, green onions, cilantro and lime juice and simmer 5 minutes to blend flavors. Season soup to taste with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• In a large skillet, brown chicken in oil. With a slotted spoon, transfer chicken to a 3- or 4-qt. slow cooker. In the same skillet, saute onion and garlic in drippings until tender; add to chicken., Place chipotle peppers and 1/4 cup broth in a blender or food processor; cover and process until blended. Add to chicken mixture. Stir in the hominy, chilies, seasonings and remaining broth. Cover and cook on low for 4-5 hours or until chicken is tender.

Steps:

• Heat oil in heavy large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic; sauté until slightly softened, about 3 minutes. Add chili powder; stir 1 minute. Add chicken; stir 2 minutes. Add broth, corn, tomatoes and 1/2 bunch cilantro sprigs to saucepan; bring to boil. Reduce heat and simmer until chicken is cooked through, about 10 minutes. Discard cilantro sprigs. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill. Bring to simmer before continuing.)
• Add chopped cilantro and lime juice to soup. Season with salt and pepper. Garnish with sour cream.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large stock pot or Dutch oven over medium. Add the onion and poblano and cook, stirring occasionally, until they have softened without taking on any color, 4 to 6 minutes. Add the garlic, cumin, coriander, oregano and red-pepper flakes, if using, and cook, stirring frequently, until the garlic and spices are fragrant, about 1 minute more. Season well with salt and pepper.
• Add the stock and chicken and bring to a simmer. Cook until the chicken has cooked through and is no longer pink, 10 to 12 minutes. Using tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer the cooked chicken to a cutting board. When cool enough to handle, shred the meat.
• Add the shredded chicken back to the pot along with the hominy and allow everything to simmer together for 5 to 10 minutes more. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Ladle into soup bowls. Serve with limes, for squeezing on top, and bowls of optional garnishes.
