i just made the yummiest most amazing soup ever and i feel the need to share it!! :) a friend taught me how to make it. its super easy and really inexpensive!! you can totally adjust the amounts to suit your needs..
'Pozole' (po-SO-lay)
**12 cups chicken broth (i bought the box stuff, but it was buy 1 get 1 free!!)
**2-3 boneless/skinless chicken breasts
1 (29oz) can hominy
1 small cabbage (green, though im sure red would work)
1 lime
cilantro (if you're like me you need a lot- 1 bunch is more than enough)
3-4 celery stocks
1/2 a med. onion (i like white or yellow)
avocados (again, depends on how much you like..)
ground cumin
finely chop celery, onion & some cilantro (15 leaves ish), throw into the broth (which is simmering on the stove..) the hominy can go in now too.
sprinkle ground cumin (failry liberally) on the chicken, and cook in a pan with a little butter/evoo or whatever you like and the juice of half the lime. when its done, cut it into bite size pieces and throw into the pot.
simmer this until its all heated throuhg (20 minutes?)
in the meantime, chop the cabbage (maybe 1/2 per person..) into long thin strips, set aside. finely chop some more cilantro, set aside. chop the avocado into little chunks, 1/2 in maybe.
To Serve: once the soup is in the bowl, top it with the cabbage, cilantro & avocados and a little (or big!) squeeze of lime over the top!
**you could make the broth out of a whole chicken or bone-in chicken breasts, ground cumin, onions celery, a bit of cilantro. boil till chicken is totally cooked, take the chicken out to cool for a bit, throw the other stuff into the broth and cut up the chicken and add it back in.
