Steps:
- 1. Rinse hominy under running water until water runs clear; place in a bowl with lima beans and chickpeas. Cover with water, and soak at least 8 hours or overnight; drain.
- 2. Whisk together the oil, paprika, chile flakes, and half of the garlic in a bowl; set sauce aside.
- 3. Heat a 5-quart stockpot over medium-high heat. Season veal and pork with salt and pepper, then add the meats to the pot and cook about 5 minutes or until browned all over. Add oil if needed to prevent sticking, and turning frequently while cooking for even browning. Drain grease, and transfer cooked meat mixture to a plate.
- 4. Add chorizo to pot and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add remaining garlic and onion, and cook about 3 minutes or until onion is soft. Add tomato paste, oregano, cumin, and bay leaf, and cook for 2 minutes more. Return veal/pork mixture to the pot. Add the drained hominy, beans and chickpea mixture, along with the squash and water. Stir well, and bring mixture to a a boil. Once it reaches a boil, immediately reduce heat to low and let it simmer about 2 hours or until until hominy and beans are tender.
- 5. Just before serving, stir in the lemon juice, and season with salt and pepper.
- 6. Divide among 6 individual serving bowls. Drizzle sauce over each serving, then garnish with scallions, and serve immediately.
