Time 2h35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 pound fresh tomatillos, husks removed
1 pound poblano peppers
1 drizzle olive oil
1 cup water
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 pounds skinless, boneless chicken breasts, cubed
1 medium white onion, diced
4 cups chicken broth
2 serrano peppers, chopped
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 teaspoons chipotle chile powder
salt to taste
¼ cup cornmeal

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
  • Place tomatillos and poblanos into a roasting pan and drizzle with olive oil, tossing to coat.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until poblanos are blackened, about 45 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool enough to handle, about 10 minutes.
  • Remove skins from poblanos and place them into an electric blender with tomatillos. Add water and blend until smooth.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Saute chicken and onion in the hot oil until onions soften and show color and chicken is browned, 5 to 7 minutes. Add blended poblanos and tomatillos, chicken broth, serrano peppers, garlic, cumin, chipotle powder, and salt.
  • Bring mixture to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and let simmer until chicken is no longer pink in the center and flavors have melded, about 1 hour. Stir in cornmeal to thicken.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup turned out really watery. I think I might have added too much broth.

This soup was a bit too spicy for me, but I think that's just a personal preference. Other than that, it was a good soup.

I'm not a huge fan of tomatillos, but I really enjoyed this soup. The flavors were well-balanced and the chicken was very tender.

I've made this posole verde several times now, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The tomatillos give it such a unique flavor, and the chicken and hominy make it hearty and filling. I also love that it's so easy to make. I usually just throw everything
