Author Notes
I saw this recipe in an issue of Bon Appetit and I immediately wanted to make it. I absolutely LOVE hominy. It’s so wonderful to put in chili, or even better, quesadillas. I just love its bite and chewiness.
I made a few tweaks to the recipe. Trader Joe’s makes a lovely frozen Seafood Blend. It has shrimp, scallops and squid rings. I was not sure how this major substitution would play out, but it definitely streamlined the recipe. And, it could not have tasted better.
Their were no leftovers. Everyone had seconds. —kimbaddd
