Steps:

In 10-inch nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of the oil over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add onion, garlic, cumin, coriander and pepper flakes; cook 4 to 6 minutes, stirring frequently, until browned. Transfer mixture to blender and cool several minutes; add 1 cup of the broth, half the drained corn and the oregano; cover and blend until smooth.
Meanwhile, in medium bowl, toss chicken with flour and salt. In 6-quart Dutch oven, heat remaining 2 tablespoons oil until shimmering. Cook chicken in oil 4 to 5 minutes without moving, until chicken releases easily from pan, then stir and continue to cook 4 minutes longer. Add mixture from blender. Add remaining 3 cups broth and remaining corn; heat to a simmer. Cook, uncovered, 3 minutes to combine flavors.
Divide among 6 bowls; top with radishes, cabbage, cheese and lime wedges.

Heat remaining 2 tablespoons canola oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Cook and stir onion and garlic until soft and transparent, about 5 minutes. Return shredded chicken to the skillet. Stir in the chicken broth, water, oregano, salt, and chili powder. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook about 90 minutes. Stir in the hominy and cook until tender, about 15 minutes more.
