CHILI HOMINY BAKE
This is an old family favorite I got from an old Better Homes & Gardens Ground Meat Cookbook. It's super easy and was great after working all day and having to feed 3 hungry growing boys. Now grown, they still request this dish. We like to serve with a salad and a pan of cornbread is a must! If you have a cast iron skillet - use it! No need to dirty another dish. Brown the meat per directions, add everything in and slide it into the oven.

Steps:
- Cut the chicken into 8 pieces. Rinse it under cold water and pat dry. Heat the butter in a skillet and when it foams, quickly sauté the chicken pieces, turning them so that they cook on both sides but do not brown. This seizes the skin so it does not shrivel during cooking. Drain the chicken on paper towels.
- Put the hominy in a 2-quart casserole with a lid. Lay the chicken pieces on top and cover with an even layer of onion, sliced mushrooms, and carrot. Add the bay leaf and sprinkle the pepper and dried thyme over the vegetables. Add the wine and cover the casserole.
- Cook in a preheated 325°F degree oven for 45 minutes. About 5 minutes before the casserole is finished cooking, add the salt and parsley. Take it from the oven and remove the bay leaf. Taste and add the cream if you want it. I do not always add it.
Tips:
- Use canned hominy, rinsed and drained, for convenience.
- Choose your chili peppers according to your desired heat level. For a milder dish, use poblano or Anaheim peppers. For a spicier dish, use serrano or jalapeño peppers.
- If you don't have diced tomatoes with green chilies, you can use regular diced tomatoes and add a chopped green chili pepper.
- Shred your own chicken for the best flavor and texture. If you're short on time, you can use rotisserie chicken.
- Garnish the casserole with chopped fresh cilantro, sour cream, and avocado slices before serving.
Conclusion:
Baked hominy casserole with chilies and chicken is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. It is packed with flavor from the chilies and spices, and the chicken and hominy provide a hearty and satisfying meal. This casserole is also relatively healthy, as it is made with lean chicken, vegetables, and whole grains. Serve it with a side of rice or beans for a complete meal.
