Chicken And Hominy Food

CHILI CHICKEN WITH HOMINY HASH

Steps:

• Position racks in the upper and lower thirds of the oven; preheat to 425 degrees F. Line 2 baking sheets with foil. Mix 1 1/2 teaspoons chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, 3/4 teaspoon salt, the cinnamon and lime zest in a bowl. Rub the spice mixture all over the chicken, then transfer to one of the baking sheets; set aside until ready to roast.
• Toss the hominy, squash, bell pepper, 2 tablespoons olive oil, the remaining 1/2 teaspoon each chili powder and cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Spread on the other baking sheet.
• Transfer the chicken to the upper oven rack and the hominy to the lower rack. Roast, stirring the hominy occasionally, until the hominy is lightly browned and the chicken is cooked through, about 25 minutes.
• Transfer the hominy to a bowl and add the lime juice, the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the scallions and cilantro. Season with salt and toss. Serve with the chicken and lime wedges.

CHICKEN AND HOMINY SOUP WITH LIME AND CILANTRO

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pot over medium heat; stir cumin and paprika into hot oil until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add broth, hominy, chicken, diced tomatoes and juice, water, green onions, lime juice, and hot sauce to seasoned oil; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until flavors have blended, about 15 minutes. Garnish soup with cilantro just before serving.

CHICKEN CHILI WITH HOMINY

Steps:

• In a large pot (5 quarts), warm oil over medium-high heat. Brown chicken until golden, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a plate; set aside.
• Reduce heat to medium. Add onion, garlic, and chile; cook, stirring often, until onion softens, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Cut browned chicken into 1/2-inch strips. Add chicken, broth, and beans to pot; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to an active simmer, and cook until chicken is very tender and chili has thickened, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Reserve 1/2 cup hominy to use as garnish; stir remaining hominy into chili. Season with salt and pepper. Ladle into bowls; garnish each serving with reserved hominy and cilantro, and drizzle with jalapeno sauce, as desired.

SAUTEED CHICKEN WITH HOMINY CASSEROLE

Steps:

• Cut the chicken into 8 pieces. Rinse it under cold water and pat dry. Heat the butter in a skillet and when it foams, quickly sauté the chicken pieces, turning them so that they cook on both sides but do not brown. This seizes the skin so it does not shrivel during cooking. Drain the chicken on paper towels.
• Put the hominy in a 2-quart casserole with a lid. Lay the chicken pieces on top and cover with an even layer of onion, sliced mushrooms, and carrot. Add the bay leaf and sprinkle the pepper and dried thyme over the vegetables. Add the wine and cover the casserole.
• Cook in a preheated 325°F degree oven for 45 minutes. About 5 minutes before the casserole is finished cooking, add the salt and parsley. Take it from the oven and remove the bay leaf. Taste and add the cream if you want it. I do not always add it.

CROCK POT CHICKEN AND HOMINY STEW

• Cover and cook on low for 6-7 hours.
• Use two forks to pull apart the chicken, and remove bones if you used bone-in meat.

Steps:

• Grease an eight-quart oven-proof casserole. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

• Stir in cooked hominy with red chilies and cook till mixture simmers again. Season to taste with salt.
• Spoon the mixture into the casserole. Top with the cheese. Bake in the oven about 30 minutes, until the casserole is bubbling and the cheese has melted and is beginning to brown. Serve at once. If desired, the casserole can be prepared in advance and set aside to be baked later. If it is not simmering just before being put in the oven, increase the baking time to about 45 minutes.
