1. In a large heavy bottomed pot or dutch oven, bring the chicken stock to a boil. Add the chicken breasts, cover and simmer over low heat until they’re tender and cooked through, about 25 minutes. Transfer the chicken breasts to a plate and shred the meat, skim the stock, and return chicken back to the stock.
2. In a blender, combine the halved tomatillos, quartered onion, poblanos and jalapenos, garlic, chopped cilantro adding 1 cup water to get the motor going. Blend until smooth, scraping down sides if necessary.
3. In a skillet, heat the oil and add 2/3 of the tomatillo puree ( reserving one third – leave in the blender) and cook over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until the sauce turns a deep green, about 8-10 minutes.
4. Pour the cooked tomatillo sauce into the chicken stock pot. Add the 3 cups of the hominy (reserving 1 cup) and bring to a gentle simmer over moderate heat. Season with salt, pepper, coriander and cumin, and cook just until heated through. If you cook this too long, it will begin to loose its vibrant color.

1. Add chicken to a large stock pot. Cover with broth. Add bay leaves, quartered onion, garlic, salt and pepper. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer and cook partially covered until chicken is cooked through, about 30 minutes.
2. Transfer the chicken to a plate. Use a slotted spoon to discard onion, garlic and bay leaves. Shred the chicken meat, removing and discarding the skin and bones.
3. Lightly spray a jelly roll pan with cooking oil. Wash all of the peppers and cut them in half from stem to end. Remove steam, veins and seeds. (Leave some of the veins and seeds if you want the soup spicier). Place the peppers on a baking sheet cut side down. Broil for about 7-10 minutes or until the skin is charred.
4. Immediately place peppers in a plastic bag and tie the bag. Allow them to steam for 5-10 minutes, and then peel off their outer layer of skin (It should come off easily).
