Yield serves 4 as a main course

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pork tenderloin (about 1 pound), halved crosswise
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 onion, coarsely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon minced canned chipotle chiles in adobo
2 cans (14 1/2 ounces each) low-sodium chicken broth
2 cans (15 1/2 ounces each) hominy, drained and rinsed
1 can (14 1/2 ounces) diced tomatoes in juice
2 cups water
1/2 cup loosely packed cilantro leaves, for garnish
Lime wedges, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • In a large pot, heat oil over medium. Season pork all over with salt and pepper. Cook until browned on all sides, 6 to 7 minutes. Transfer pork to a plate.
  • Add onion and garlic to pot; season with salt and pepper. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until onion begins to soften, 4 to 5 minutes.
  • Add chipotle chiles; cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add chicken broth, hominy, tomatoes with their juice, pork, and the water. Bring to a boil; reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers 145°F, about 5 minutes.
  • Remove pork, and shred with two forks; return to pan, and stir to combine. To serve, ladle soup into bowls, and garnish with cilantro. Serve with lime wedges, if desired.
  • Make Ahead
  • This dish actually improves when made ahead and refrigerated. After returning shredded pork to soup, let cool completely and store up to 1 day in an airtight container; reheat gently before serving.

This is my go-to recipe for Cinco de Mayo. It's always a hit with my friends and family. The chipotle peppers give it a nice smoky flavor, and the pork is always so tender. I love serving it with all the traditional toppings, like avocado, cilantro,

This is a great recipe for budget-minded cooks. The ingredients are all affordable, and you can easily stretch the soup by adding more vegetables or beans. It's a delicious and filling meal that won't break the bank.

This recipe is perfect for busy weeknights. I was able to prep everything in advance, and then just throw it in the slow cooker in the morning. Dinner was ready when I got home from work, and my family loved it.

I made this recipe without the pork, and it was still delicious. I used vegetable broth and added extra vegetables, like zucchini and bell peppers. It turned out great, and I would definitely make it again.

If you like spicy food, this is the posole recipe for you. The chipotle peppers give it a nice kick, and the pork is really flavorful. I also added a few extra jalapeños to mine for an extra bit of heat.

I was looking for a healthier version of posole, and this recipe fit the bill. I used lean pork and low-sodium broth, and it turned out great. The soup is still flavorful and satisfying, but it's not as heavy as traditional posole.

I'm not a big fan of posole, but this recipe changed my mind. The chipotle peppers add a nice smoky flavor, and the pork is really flavorful. I also love the addition of the hominy, which gives the soup a nice texture. Overall, this is a great recipe
