Perini Ranch Green Chile Hominy

Course Entrées
Servings 10 servings

Ingredients
  

  • vegetable oil spray
  • 10 slices bacon
  • 1 cup onion, chopped
  • 4 cans (15 oz) white hominy, drained, with ½ cup liquid reserved
  • 1-2 pickled jalapenos, minced
  • 1 Tbsp liquid from jar of jalapenos
  • 1 cup New Mexican green or Poblano chiles, peeled, seeded, chopped and roasted
  • 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350℉. Spray a 9x13-inch baking dish (one that's at least 2 inches deep) with vegetable oil spray.
  • Put the bacon slices in a cold skillet. Turn the heat to medium-low and cook the bacon for 3 minutes on one side. Turn the bacon and cook on the other side to desired doneness. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
  • When cool enough to handle, crumble the bacon with your fingers and set aside.
  • Carefully pour off all but 2 to 3 Tbsp of the bacon drippings. Return the skillet to the stovetop and stir in the onion. Cook over medium heat until the onion is tender, about 5 minutes.
  • Pour in the hominy liquid and jalapeno liquid and cook until reduced by about one-half, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the hominy and jalapenos and heat through.
  • Stir in half of the crumbled bacon and half of the cheese.
  • Spoon into the prepared baking dish. Scatter the remaining bacon and cheese over the hominy.
  • Bake for 25 minutes, until the cheese on top melts and the hominy mixture is bubbly.
  • Let sit for 5 minutes before serving.
