Chicken Posole (Slow Cooker)

By Thom7747

The best thing about this recipe is that you dump the ingredients in a freezer bag and throw it in the freezer, and then when you want to serve it for dinner, just pull the bag out of the freezer, run it under water for a minute to loosen the bag, and dump it in your crockpot!

Ingredients

• 1 lb. Chicken Breasts (if you have a larger family, just add more chicken)
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 Onion, diced
• 2 carrots, diced
• 1 tsp. Oregano
• 1 tsp. Cumin
• 1 can (14.5 oz) Mexican stewed Tomatoes
• 1 can (14.5 oz) Chicken Broth
• 1 cup Salsa Verde (you can find this in small cans, or in with the salsa-- use whatever heat you prefer- I use mild)
• 1 can (15 oz) hominy (this will not go in the freezer)

Preparation

Step 1

In a freezer bag combine ingredients and freeze.
To prepare: Dump the frozen contents in your crockpot. Cook on low 6-8 hours. Approximately 1 hour before you plan to serve it, shred the chicken into smaller pieces by using 2 forks, and add 1 can (15 oz) of Hominy. Serve with whatever toppings sound good to you.

Notes:
Dress up your posole when it's finished: sprinkle it with some cheese, serve it with corn chips or tortillas, add a little sliced radish or lime juice for a bit of extra pizazz- you can add whatever sounds good to you!
