Equipment

  • Baking Dish
  • Large Skillet
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Can opener
  • Measuring cups
  • Sharp Knife
  • Oven Mitts

Ingredients
  

  • 32 oz HOMINY
  • 8 slices BACON
  • 2 cups CHEDDAR CHEESE
  • 1 cup SOUR CREAM
  • 4 oz GREEN CHILES
  • 1 small YELLOW ONION
  • 2 tbsp BUTTER
  • 1/2 tsp BLACK PEPPER

Instructions
 

Step 1:

  • Turn your oven to 350 degrees now. Let it heat up while you work. This ensures a perfect bake later. Grease your baking dish with butter.

Step 2:

  • Place the bacon in your skillet. Cook it over a medium heat. Make sure the bacon is very crispy. Move the bacon to a paper towel.

Step 3:

  • Leave some grease in the skillet. Add your chopped onions to the pan. Cook them until they are very soft. This should take five minutes.

Step 4:

  • Open your cans of hominy now. Drain all the water from the cans. Put the hominy into a large bowl. Add the cooked onions to the bowl.

Step 5:

  • Stir in the sour cream and chiles. Add half of the shredded cheese. Crumble the crispy bacon into the mix. Season it with a little black pepper.

Step 6:

  • Pour the mixture into your baking dish. Spread it out with a spoon. Make the top very flat and even. It is ready for the final touch.

Step 7:

  • Sprinkle the rest of the cheese on top. Cover the whole surface with cheese. This creates a beautiful golden crust. It looks very tasty already.

Step 8:

  • Place the dish in the oven. Bake it for thirty minutes. The cheese should be bubbling and brown. Remove it carefully with your mitts.

Notes

  • Drain the hominy very well for best texture.
  • Use sharp cheddar cheese for a bolder taste.
  • Do not overcook the bacon in the skillet.
  • Let the casserole rest for five minutes first.
  • Add extra chiles if you like spicy food.
  • Sauté onions until they are translucent and soft.
  • Full-fat sour cream provides the best creamy mouthfeel.
  • Grease the pan edges to prevent sticking issues.
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight glass container.
  • Reheat in the oven to keep it crispy.
