Instructions

  1. In a Dutch oven on medium-high heat add olive oil, onions, and Jalapeno pepper.
  2. Brown the onions and pepper so that they get some color on them. Then add corn and cook until it also turns a little brown.
  3. Then add a heaping teaspoon of chili powder, chicken stock, diced tomatoes and green chilies, tomato sauce, and white hominy. Season with salt and pepper, mix it together and let it simmer for 2 minutes.
  4. Add 3 to 4 cups shredded chicken (We used Hormel precooked chicken taco meat, it is shredded, seasoned, and fully cooked dark meat), but you can use any precooked shredded chicken. Then add a 1/2 teaspoon of sugar. Let it simmer for 10 minutes uncovered.
  5. Top and serve with some shredded Mexican blend cheese, crumbled-up tortilla chips, sour cream, and some thinly sliced green onions and enjoy.
