Ingredients
Here’s what you’ll need to whip up this delightful dish:
- 3 cups hominy, drained and rinsed
- 1 lb boneless, skinless chicken thighs
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 4 cups chicken broth
- 2-3 fresh green chiles, chopped (or use canned if you can’t find fresh)
- 1 tsp cumin
- ½ tsp oregano
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
- Lime wedges (for serving)
Instructions
Alright, let’s get down to business and cook this up!
- Start by tossing those chicken thighs into your slow cooker. This is where the magic happens, you feel me?
- Add in the hominy, chopped onion, and minced garlic for that extra flavor kick.
- Pour in your chicken broth, making sure everything is submerged. We need all those flavors to mingle!
- Now, layer in those green chiles, cumin, oregano, salt, and pepper. Give it a good stir to mix it all up.
- Cover the slow cooker and let it do its thing on low for about 6-8 hours, or on high for 3-4 hours. You want that chicken to be tender and shreadable.
- Once it’s ready, take out the chicken, shred it, and return it to the pot. Stir that goodness together!
- Serve it up hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and lime wedges on the side for that zesty finish.
