Steps to make Chicken Pozole Verde:
- Blacken the poblano peppers by either grilling them or directly placing on a gas burner until all sides of the pepper's skin is black. Then place them in a concealed plastic bag to allow the skin to steam off. Set aside.
- Meanwhile, in a large stock pot add chicken, water to cover the chicken, bay leaves, 1 whole onion and chicken bouillon. Bring to boil, lower heat to a simmer, and cook for 25 minutes, until chicken can be easily shredded. Remove the chicken and set aside to let cool. Add all the drained homily but 1 cup into the stock. Simmer for 30 minutes on low heat.
- Saute tomatillos, 2 onions cut into chunks, garlic and olive oil on medium low heat for 30 minutes. The tomatillos will turn to an olive green color. If the vegetables start to stick to the pan add a 1/4 cup of water.
- Meanwhile, peel the the skin from the blackened peppers and remove the seeds and stems.
- In a blender, puree cilantro, blackened poblano peppers, roasted vegetables with their juices and 1 cup of hominy. This will have to happen in shifts. If liquid is needed, add broth from the stock pot.
