Here is the recipe that our family uses every year on Christmas eve. It is a green soup and when topped with a red salsa it looks very festive!
Posole
Extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 lb boneless pork loin chops, diced
1 medium spanish onion, chopped
1 fresh serrano or jalapeno pepper, finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tablespoons ground cumin
kosher salt and cracked black pepper to taste
10 to 12 tomatillos, husked
1/2 fresh lime
2 to 3 stems fresh orgegano, leaves stripped and chopped
4 to 6 stems of fresh thyme, leaves stripped and chopped
2 cans (14 oz ea) of low-sodium chicken broth
2 cans hominy
In a large, heavy pot, coated lightly with olive oil, brown the pork over medium-high heat. When the pork is brown, after 5 or 6 minutes, add onion, serrano or jalapeno pepper, and garlic. Reduce heat to medium and let it hang out another 5 or 6 minutes, until the onions become translucent. Add cumin salt and pepper.
While the pork and onion are cooking, process the tomatillos, the juice of the 1/2 lime and the oregano and thyme leaves in the food processor until it has a salsa-like consistency. Dump this into the stewpot and cook the tomatillos for 2 or 3 minutes vefore adding the next ingredients. (Cooking the tomatillos mellows their bitter taste.)
Stir in the chicken broth and the drained corn. Heat stew through. Serve with toppings.
Toppings:

Mexican Posole Stew
"This Mexican pork stew can be served without the pork rinds and pigs' feet, if desired, but it will not be authentic. Posole may be served as a main dish with tortillas or crackers. Posole can be found in the meat section if it is available in your area. If not available, hominy can be substituted in the same quantities but no rinsing or pre-cooking is needed. Add red chili sauce and leave the seeds in the peppers for a hotter/spicier taste. You can also add one can of tomatoes to enhance the flavor of the stew."

Posole
Posole is a traditional Mexican dish from the pacific coast region of Jalisco. A thick soup that's usually made with pork, hominy, garlic, onion, chili peppers, cilantro, and broth.
Serves 4
INGREDIENTS1 1/2 lbs. pork shoulder
1/2 onion stuck with 2 cloves
2 cloves garlic, peeled
5 peppercorns
1/2 teaspoon whole cumin seed
oregano, pinch
1 onion, chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 tablespoon oil
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon cloves
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
4 cups canned white hominy, drained and rinsed
3 to 5 cups pork broth from cooking pork shoulder
1 cup canned chopped green chilies
Salt to taste
2 whole jalapenos, canned or fresh, chopped (optional)
PREP WORK This recipe requires a simple prep. Prepare the onion with the 2 cloves, peel the garlic, chop the onion, peel and chop the 2 garlic cloves, chop the green chilies and jalapenos if you are using them and get the hominy drained and rinsed. Now you are ready to cook.
HOW TO MAKE AT HOMEPlace the meat in a large saucepan and just cover with lightly salted water. Add the clove studded onion, 2 cloves peeled garlic, peppercorns, cumin seed, and oregano. Bring to a boil over medium heat, skim off any foam that rises, reduce heat, cover and simmer for 45 minutes. Remove meat and broth, reserving both.
Sauté the chopped onion and garlic in oil until translucent. Add the remaining spices, stir for a minute. Cut the reserved pork into 1 inch cubes and add to the pan. Stir in the canned hominy, pork broth (if there is not enough pork broth, add chicken stock), green chilies and jalapenos (optional).
Cook at a simmer, covered, for 45 to 60 minutes until the meat and hominy are tender. If necessary, cook for up to an additional 60 minutes until the chilies and onions are well blended into the broth. Degrease the stew, taste for salt, and serve in soup bowls.
This is a delicious recipe and well worth the effort to make.

A nice flavorful stew with hominy and linquica sausage. Can be vegetarian, leaving out the linquica.

< 60 mins Stews
Southwestern U.S. Stews
Beef Sausage Stews
In a large saucepan, or dutch oven add all ingredients, and simmer over a low heat, covered until the potatoes are tender, and the flavors blended.
Use your own discretion on the amount of spices to use.
Goya's Recaito is a nice addition and gives the stew the cilantro flavor.
Serve with some hot sauce, and a nice crusty bread.
Leave out the linquica and it's a great vegetarian stew.
