Ingredients
- 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts (about 1.5 – 2 lbs. total)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- salt and pepper, to taste
- 10 tomatillos, husks removed and halved
- 1 large onion, quartered
- 2 jalapeños, seeded and ribs removed (use gloves for this and wash hands)
Instructions
- Heat about 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Season chicken with garlic powder, salt and pepper; place in the hot skillet. Sear chicken until golden brown on both sides (about 4-5 minutes per side). Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 10 more minutes.
- While the chicken cooks in the skillet, prepare the tomatillo salsa.
- Place the halved tomatillos, the onion, and the jalapeños in a blender. Blend until smooth (you may need to add a splash of water to get the blender going).
- Add the tomatillo salsa to the skillet. Cover and simmer for 15 minutes, or until chicken is fully cooked.
