DH was in heaven when he sat down to a bowl of this soup and a cheese quesadilla. Hominy has such a unique taste and it really worked well with the combination of chicken and seasonings. This soup is very light and has a lot of spicy broth so is perfect for a lunch with a salad or sandwich or as a starter for a mexican meal. This will be a regular at our house. Thanks Brooke the Cook in WI. Made for ZWT5.

This was a GREAT RECIPE, Realizing that the recipe said that more chicken could be added I made some extra chicken, and I did add a little. Granted I like spicy food, I added the chicken to tone it down. It might have been my taste buds.There is good news also, the combo of the oregeno, chili powder, and the garlic cloves, combined with the chicken flavor, and hominy made this one DELICIOUS meal, and I would definately recommend this as a compliment to a chicken dinner, or with a salad. A nice easy to follow recipe with lots of flavor. Made for PRMR tag.
