Steps

1 hour 30 minutes

1

Boil the chicken breast with garlic, onion, fresh mint, and fresh oregano.
2

In a separate pot, boil the guajillo chiles for 10-15 minutes. Roast half of the onion and half of the garlic (the portions not used for boiling the chicken). Also, roast the peppercorns, preferably if they are red.
3

When the chicken breast is cooked, remove it from the broth and shred it. Add the hominy to the same broth and bring to a boil.
4

Once the chiles are ready, blend them in a blender with the roasted ingredients. For best flavor, use some of the chicken broth instead of water. When blending the guajillo chiles, add the spices: cloves, oregano, and cumin.
5

Strain the blended mixture and add it to the pot with the simmering hominy. When it starts to boil, add the shredded chicken.
6

When the pozole is ready, serve it in bowls and top with chopped cilantro, radish, onion, extra chile if desired, and avocado. Enjoy!
