Green Chicken Pozole is a flavorful Mexican stew featuring tender shredded chicken simmered in a vibrant tomatillo-based sauce, giving it a distinct green hue. This hearty dish combines hominy, a type of dried maize, with fragrant herbs like cilantro and oregano, as well as green chiles for a mild kick. Traditionally garnished with toppings like shredded cabbage, radishes, avocado, and lime, it offers a balance of textures and flavors. Pozole stands out for being rich in protein from the chicken and fiber from the hominy and vegetables, making it filling and nutrient-dense. Its high vitamin C content comes from tomatillos and garnishes, which support immune health. However, sodium levels can vary depending on broth and seasoning, so mindful preparation is key for those watching their salt intake. Green Chicken Pozole is a wholesome, comforting dish rooted in Mexican heritage and ideal for a balanced meal.
