Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground pork sausage
- 30 ounces Hominy (canned, drained and rinsed)
- 1 Onion (medium, diced)
- 2 Garlic cloves (minced)
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 1 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 Green onions (chopped, for garnish)
- 0.5 cup Shredded cheddar cheese (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the ground pork sausage. Cook until browned and fully cooked, breaking it apart into crumbles with a wooden spoon. Remove the sausage from the skillet and set aside, leaving any grease in the pan.
Step 2
Add the butter to the same skillet and melt over medium heat. Stir in the diced onion and cook for about 3-4 minutes, or until softened and translucent.
Step 3
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
Step 4
Stir in the drained and rinsed hominy, and return the cooked sausage to the skillet. Mix well to combine.
Step 5
Pour in the chicken broth and season with paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir everything together and bring to a gentle simmer. Let cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the liquid has slightly reduced and the flavors have melded together.
Step 6
Optionally, sprinkle shredded cheddar cheese over the top and let it melt for 2-3 minutes before removing the skillet from the heat.
Step 7
Garnish with chopped green onions and serve hot. Enjoy!
