3 Tbls. peanut oil
1 Tbls. chopped jalapeno or other hot chile, or to taste
1 clove garlic, smashed and peeled
1½ cups canned hominy, drain well
1 lb. kale or collards, washed and chopped
1 Tbls. minced garlic
salt
freshly ground black pepper to taste
Freshly squeezed juice of 2 limes, plus more if needed
Recipe
Heat oil in large skillet or wok. Add the chile and the crushed garlic. Cook, stirring, until the garlic is golden about 3 minutes, do not let it burn. Remove from heat and discard the smashed garlic and the chile pieces.
Return pan to high heat and add the hominy. Cook, stirring occasionally until the kernels begin to brown, about 5 minutes. Add the chopped greens and minced garlic. Cook, still over high heat, stirring constantly until the greens wilt and begin to char at the edges, 5 to 8 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper and add the lime juice. Taste, adjust seasoning--add more lime juice if necessary--and serve immediately.
