Directions

1. In a deep skillet, heat the EVOO, 2 turns of the pan, over medium-high heat.
2. Add the pork and season with salt and pepper; add the cumin and allspice. Cook until brown and crumbly, 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the onion, garlic and jalapeño.
3. Using a food processor, pulse the tomatillos until coarsely chopped, about a few seconds.
4. Stir the tomatillos into the pork, lower the heat to medium and cook, stirring, for 10 minutes.
5. Stir in the honey and season with salt and pepper. Stir in the chicken broth and hominy and cook until heated through, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in the cilantro and turn off the heat.
6. Squeeze 1/2 lime over the pork; stir. Squeeze the other 1/2 lime over the avocado. Serve the pork in shallow bowls with the avocado, tortilla chips and lettuce on top.
