Rick Martinez’s Pozole Verde from Mi Cocina is layered, comforting, and vibrant. Roasted hominy, puréed tomatillos and peppers, seared chicken, and a fresh cilantro finish create a rich yet lively broth. Load it up with crunchy, bright toppings for a soup that truly shines.
Whenever winter sets in, I turn to Rick Martinez’s Cuban-style black beans. Made with dried beans, aromatics, and zero soaking, they simmer into something deeply creamy and comforting. Effortless, pantry-friendly, and endlessly versatile, they’re just as good in breakfast burritos as straight from the fridge.
