                                          • Preheat oven to 400 °F.
                                          • Spray sheet pan(s) with nonstick cooking spray.
                                            For 25 servings, use 1 sheet pan.
                                            For 50 servings, use 2 sheet pans.
                                          • Place chicken breasts on a sheet pan (or pans).
                                            Bake for 15-25 minutes, until internal temperature reaches 165 °F. For large chicken breasts, cut in half to decrease cooking time.
                                            Critical Control Point: Heat to 165 °F or higher for at least 15 seconds.
                                          • Remove chicken breasts from oven. Let chicken breasts sit for 10 minutes to slightly cool, then dice.
                                          • Heat oil in a large stockpot or a tilting kettle on medium–high heat.
                                          • Add onions, and sauté until soft.
                                          • Add garlic, salt, and pepper. Continue cooking on medium–high heat until garlic is fragrant, about 2–3 minutes. Stir frequently.
                                          • Add cooked chicken, diced tomatoes with juice, tomato paste, hominy, and water. Reduce heat to medium–low, and simmer for 20–30 minutes, stirring occasionally. If too thick, add more water for desired consistency.
                                            Critical Control Point: Heat to 140° F or higher for at least 15 seconds.
                                          • Remove pozole from heat, and stir in fresh cilantro.
                                          • Serve ½ cup (4 oz ladle). Lime wedge is optional.
                                            Critical Control Point: Hold at 140 °F or higher.
