It is eaten throughout Mexico and neighboring countries for everyday meals and celebrations. Whip up this flavorful meal when craving bold flavors and a comforting soup.<\/p>\n<h2>What is Hominy?<\/h2>\n<p>Hominy is dried corn soaked with an alkali solution in a process called nixtamalization that removes the tough hull and makes the corn easier to grind and cook. Nixtamalization also helps the kernels release more nutrients and makes them easier to digest. The resulting chewy, nutty texture works well in rich, spicy soups, making it a staple ingredient in Mexican cuisine.<\/p>\n<h2>Hominy Soup Ingredients<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Chicken breasts:<\/strong> Boneless and skinless chick breast provides lean protein and a tender texture.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Olive oil: <\/strong>Browning the chicken, onions and garlic in olive oil enhances the soup&#8217;s flavor and boosts nutrition.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Onion and garlic:<\/strong> Infuses the soup base with a rich, aromatic flavor that enhances all the other ingredients.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce:<\/strong> The canned peppers add a smoky heat and a complex, spicy flavor that defines the soup&#8217;s character.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chicken broth:<\/strong> This simple, savory liquid base ties all the flavors together into a cohesive soup.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hominy:<\/strong> The chewy corn kernels and a slightly nutty flavor are essential for pozole.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Chopped green chiles:<\/strong> Canned green chilies add a mild heat, enhancing the soup&#8217;s complexity.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Dried spices:<\/strong> Oregano contributes a warm, slightly bitter flavor that complements the other spices. Cumin adds a warm, earthy flavor and deepens the soup&#8217;s overall taste.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Directions<\/h2>\n<h3>Step 1: Brown the chicken and vegetables<\/h3>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2022346\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tasteofhome.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Hominy-Soup_TOHD24_142730_PerrySantanachote_1.jpg?fit=700%2C1024\" alt=\"How to Make Hominy Soup, step 1 sauteeing chicken and onions\" width=\"700\" height=\"1024\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><span class=\"credits-overlay\"><span class=\"image-credit noskim\">Perry Santanachote for Taste Recipes<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>In a large skillet, brown the chicken in oil and transfer it to a slow cooker.
