Recipe Summary Chicken Butternut Squash Posole
This is quick to put together and smells great while cooking! You can have fun with different types of salsas to add different flavor profiles! Cheese, green onions, and cilantro can be used as garnish, if desired.Ingredients | Boneless Skinless Chicken Thighs Slow Cooker Mexican
1 pound boneless chicken breasts, cut into 2-inch pieces
1 pound butternut squash, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces
2 (15 ounce) cans red beans, drained and rinsed
1 (28 ounce) can hominy
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
1 (16 ounce) jar salsa
½ (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer
2 teaspoons dried Mexican oregano
½ cup heavy whipping cream (Optional)
Directions
Combine chicken, butternut squash, red beans, hominy, chicken broth, salsa, beer, and Mexican oregano in a slow cooker.
Cook on Low for 7 1/2 hours (or on High for 3 1/2 hours). Stir cream into soup and continue cooking for 30 minutes more.
Can omit chicken and use veggie broth for a vegetarian version.
Pinto beans, black beans, or a mixture of beans can be used in place of red beans.
Sweet potatoes can be substituted for the butternut squash.
Regular oregano can be used in place of the Mexican oregano.
I use dark beer, but any variety will do.
