Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to make this fabulous hominy that packs a flavorful punch:
- 2 cups of hominy (canned or frozen, whichever tickles your taste buds)
- 1 onion, finely chopped (because we want to bring tears of joy, not sorrow)
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced (the more, the merrier)
- 2 tablespoons of butter (or if you prefer, margarita for the daring hearts)
- 1 teaspoon of paprika (for that smoky kick)
- Salt and pepper to taste (add as much or as little as you fancy)
- 1 cup of shredded cheese (cheddar or your cheese crush)
- Fresh cilantro for garnish (optional but why skip the fancy touch?)
Instructions
Let’s get this hominy party started!
- First things first, grab a medium-sized skillet and melt that butter over medium heat. We’re creating a hominy haven here!
- Add the chopped onion and garlic to the skillet and sauté until the onions turn translucent. If you can resist the urge to eat them raw while they cook, well done!
- Now, add in the hominy along with the paprika, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together like you’re mixing a long-lost family reunion.
- Let it cook for about 5-7 minutes until it’s heated through. This is the time to dance around your kitchen like nobody’s watching!
- Finally, sprinkle that glorious shredded cheese all over the top and cover the skillet. Let it melt – the more cheese, the better! (And maybe have a little taste while it melts because why not?)
- Once the cheese is bubbly and wonderfully gooey, garnish with some fresh cilantro if you’re feeling extra fancy!
And there you have it! A bowl of Grandma’s Hot Hominy that would make anyone’s heart (and stomach) sing with joy. Serve it as a side dish, or be bold and make it the star of the meal. Happy eating, folks!
