Locro Criollo

An Argentinian dinner built around white hominy and pork shoulder — on the table in 180 minutes. It is weeknight cooking that still hits your targets — 37 grams of protein per serving. It scales cleanly if you are cooking for more than one.

Ingredients

• 2 cups White hominy
• 1 lb Pork shoulder
• 1/2 lb Chorizo
• 2 lb Butternut squash
• 1 cup White beans
• 2 Onion
• 2 tbsp Paprika
• 4 Green onions

Steps

1. Soak the hominy and beans overnight; this is a national-dish stew and it does not rush.
2. Simmer the pork, hominy, and beans 90 minutes, skimming, until the grains begin to burst and thicken the pot.
3. Add the squash in chunks and cook 45 minutes more, stirring often — the squash should collapse into the stew.
4. Brown the chorizo separately and stir it in at the end with the paprika sizzle.
5. Serve in deep bowls with chopped green onion; locro is May 25th in edible form.
