Cook: 2h

Servings: 4

Ingredients

  • 1 whole chicken, 4 1/2 to 5 1/2 pounds, chopped
  • Salt
  • 1 red onion, halved
  • Large 6 lb. corn can (105 oz) dried and rinsed
  • 4 large cloves of garlic, peeled
  • 1-2 tablespoons dried oregano (Mexican oregano, if you have one)
  • 1/4 whole cabbage, thinly sliced
  • 1 tomato, pith, chopped
  • 1 avocado, peeled, chopped
  • 1 red onion, peeled, chopped
  • 1 large bunch of coriander, chopped
  • 1 large pile of chopped watercress
  • Mexican cheese Queso Fresco, sliced
  • Several red radishes, thinly sliced
  • 2 limes, cut into wedges
  • Chopped jalapeno or serrano peppers or another chilli

Directions

  1. Boil the chicken in a large pot of water: Place the chicken pieces in a large pot, pour about 3 litres of water. Add the halved onion and 1 teaspoon of salt. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low. Cook over low heat until chicken is tender and cooked, about 20-30 minutes.
  2. Separating chicken meat: Remove the chicken from the pan, let it cool so that it is cold enough to process. Use a fork to separate the chicken from the bones.
  3. Continue cooking the bones over low heat: Set the meat aside and return the bones to the pot. Continue boiling the bones without the lid for another half hour.
  4. Combine some corn with a little stock and garlic: Take 4 cups of corn (about half a can) and place in a blender. Remove 2 cups of chicken stock from the pot and add to a blender. Add 4 peeled garlic cloves to a blender.
  5. Degrease foam, remove solids from storage, add corn, oregano: Skim off the foam and excess fat from the top of the broth. Remove bones and debris from the pot and discard.
  6. Pour the mixed hominem into a saucepan. Add all the remaining corn to the pot. Add 2 tablespoons of crushed dry oregano. Simmer and cook for another 20 minutes.
  7. While the corn is cooking in the broth, prepare the side dishes. Arrange in a large bowl or several small bowls.
  8. Add shredded chicken back to the pot: Just before serving, cook the chicken meat or add it back to the pot. Season to taste.
