2 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into 1 1/2- to 2-inch pieces
¼ cup Mazola® Corn Oil
1 medium onion, diced
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1 small jalapeno or serrano chili pepper, seeded and minced
2 tablespoons Mazola® Chicken Flavor Bouillon Powder

Stir in garlic, minced chile and bouillon powder; continue cooking 1 minute. Pour in 1 cup water and stir well. Remove from heat and pour into slow cooker. Add remaining water, hominy, oregano, bay leaf and lime juice.
  • Cover and heat for 4 to 6 hours on LOW or 3 to 4 hours on HIGH. The soup is ready when the chicken is tender and can be easily pulled apart. Shred chicken using two forks to pull apart. Ladle soup into bowls and let guests garnish the soup as desired.
