Ingredients
1 lb ground pork sausage (hot variety)
1 red onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
2 teaspoons chili powder
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon smoked Spanish paprika
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 (14 oz) cans fire-roasted tomatoes with garlic
2 (14 oz) cans white beans, drained and rinsed
1 (14 oz) can hominy, drained
Sour cream for serving
Directions
Heat a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the ground pork sausage and cook, breaking it apart with a spoon, until browned and no longer pink (about 5-7 minutes). Internal temperature should reach 160°F. Drain excess fat from the pot.
Add the chopped red onion and minced garlic to the pot. Sauté over medium-high heat, stirring frequently, until the onion becomes translucent and softened (about 3 minutes).
Stir in the chili powder, ground cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Cook, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute until the spices are fragrant and well combined.
Add the fire-roasted tomatoes with their liquid, along with the drained white beans and hominy. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
Reduce heat to medium-low and cover the pot. Simmer for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally. The longer cooking time is acceptable and will allow the flavors to develop further.
Ladle the chili into bowls and serve hot, topped with a dollop of sour cream.
