Green Posole with Chicken

This vibrant green chicken pozole is a simplified take on the traditional Mexican favourite, offering a bright and zesty flavour profile that is perfect for any season. By using shop-bought salsa verde and a pre-cooked rotisserie chicken, you can achieve a deeply savoury, complex broth in a fraction of the usual time. The star of the dish is the hominy, which provides a satisfyingly chewy texture and a subtle hint of toasted maize that pairs beautifully with the tangy tomatillo base.

As a high-protein meal, this soup is both nourishing and remarkably filling, making it an excellent choice for a healthy family dinner. The interactive element of the fresh garnishes—ranging from crunchy radishes and cooling avocado to crisp tortilla strips—allows everyone at the table to customise their bowl to their own taste. Serve it as a stand-alone main dish for a light yet comforting weekday supper.
