Steps:

• Heat the canola oil in a skillet over high heat. Add the pork; cook and stir just until meat is browned on all sides, about 5 minutes.

• Cover, and cook on High for 6 to 7 hours. Stir in the cilantro and salt. Cook on Low for 30 minutes more.

SLOW COOKER CHICKEN POZOLE BLANCO

Steps:

• Pat chicken dry with paper towels and season with salt and pepper, if desired. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add chicken and brown lightly, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer chicken to 6-quart slow cooker. Reduce heat to medium and add onions to skillet. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes or until onions begin to soften. Stir in garlic, minced chile and bouillon powder; continue cooking 1 minute. Pour in 1 cup water and stir well. Remove from heat and pour into slow cooker. Add remaining water, hominy, oregano, bay leaf and lime juice.
• Cover and heat for 4 to 6 hours on LOW or 3 to 4 hours on HIGH. The soup is ready when the chicken is tender and can be easily pulled apart. Shred chicken using two forks to pull apart. Ladle soup into bowls and let guests garnish the soup as desired.

SLOW COOKER SHORTCUT CHICKEN POZOLE

Steps:

• Combine the onion, carrot, celery and garlic in a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker. Pull the whole chiles out of the can of chipotles in adobo (use only half if you prefer the finished dish to be medium-spicy), and roughly chop them. Add the chiles and all the adobo sauce to the slow cooker as well as the onion and garlic powders and cumin. Pull the skin from half of the chicken legs and discard it, or save to render the fat at another time. (Start at the thigh and pull the skin off the drumstick as if removing a glove; it should come off fairly easily.)
• Add the chicken legs to the slow cooker and stir to combine. Pour in the broth. Add 1/2 teaspoon salt if you are using low-sodium broth or 1 teaspoon salt if using homemade unsalted stock. Do not add salt now if you are using fully salted broth. Cook on low until the chicken is tender and the broth is flavorful, at least 4 hours and up to 6 hours. If it's more convenient, let the slow cooker switch to warm after 6 hours. The soup will hold on warm for about an additional 2 hours before the chicken dries out.
• Switch the heat to high. With tongs or a slotted spoon, remove the chicken and vegetables to a bowl. Discard the vegetables and let the chicken cool while you finish the soup. Using an immersion blender (see Tip), purée the broth. (It will be mostly smooth but some small flecks of pepper skin may remain.) Stir in the corn, pozole and lime juice. Shred the chicken meat, discarding the bones and skin, and add it into the soup. Replace the cover, let the ingredients warm through and serve the soup in bowls with the toppings of your choice.

CHICKEN POZOLE ROJO

• In a 6-quart caldero place chicken, onion, garlic, and 1 teaspoon salt and bring to a boil and then lower heat to medium-low for 20 minutes or until chicken is no longer pink.
• In a large bowl filled with hot water add dried chiles until the chiles have softened about 10 to 15 minutes. Discard liquid.
• Shred the chicken into small pieces.
• In a blender combine 1 cup of the cooked chicken broth with onions, garlic, and softened chiles with 1 teaspoon of salt and blend. Reserve the remaining chicken broth.
• Add the shredded chicken, blended sauce, and White Hominy to the caldero with reserved broth and bring to a boil. Lower the heat and simmer for 20 minutes. If necessary, season with salt.
