• Add chicken.
• Add water and broth, stir well.
• Place 1 tub of green chiles in blender and puree. Them add to pan.
• Add second tub to pan.
• Add garlic salt, cumin, Mexican oregano and menudo spice mix. I used all but about 1 tablespoon of the menudo mix. I suggest adding small amounts until it is strong enough. Stir well.
• Add cilantro.
• Lower heat and simmer 3 hours.
• Add hominy and simmer until warm throughout. About 15 minutes.
• Salt and pepper to taste.
• I have found the frozen green chiles and menudo mix at Kroger Signature & Wal-Mart grocery stores.
• Actually I used a whole Beer Can Chicken off my smoker that most of the fat had been cooked off. I tossed the skin. That is why I suggested using rotiserie chicken.
