GREEN CHILE CHICKEN

Steps:

• First, make the marinade for the chicken: Combine the olive oil, lime juice, cumin, salt, pepper, chipotle peppers and garlic in a blender and mix until totally pureed. Pour into a large resealable plastic bag with the chicken breasts. Seal the bag, smush it around to coat the chicken and place it in the fridge to marinate for at least 4 hours (overnight if possible).
• After the chicken has marinated, roast the poblano chiles one-by-one over the flame of your stovetop, using metal tongs to hold them, until the skin is totally charred. (If you don't have a gas stove, you can use an outdoor grill OR place them on a baking sheet directly under your oven's broiler.) When the skin is totally blackened, place the chiles in a large resealable plastic bag and seal the bag to allow the chiles to sweat for a good 20 minutes. Remove the chiles and use a knife to scrape off most of the blackened skin. Slice the chiles in half lengthwise, and scrape out the seeds and membranes. Lay out the chile halves so they'll be ready for the next step.
• Preheat a grill pan to medium-high heat (or use a skillet). Grill the chicken (or saute in the skillet) for 4 minutes on the first side. Turn the chicken over and lay 2 chile halves and a nice slice of cheese on the cooked side of each piece. Turn the heat to medium low and allow the chicken to finish cooking until it's totally done in the center, 4 to 5 minutes. The cheese should melt on its own; if it needs a little help, invert an iron skillet over it (or put the lid on the skillet, if using). Serve!

Turn heat to medium high, cook 3 minutes, then puree in a food processor or blender (be very careful with hot liquids in the blender, as they can overflow suddently). Strain the mixture and return to the saucepan over medium heat. Add the remaining butter and cook, stirring occasionally, until sauce is reduced to about 2 cups (it should be fairly thin). Keep warm.

CHICKEN THIGHS WITH GREEN SAUCE

Steps:

• Arrange the chicken pieces in a large, deep skillet and pour the olive oil over them. Turn the pieces to coat them evenly with oil. Scatter the garlic pieces in the pan and lay the parsley and scallions (both uncut) on top of the chicken so as to "smother" it during cooking. Sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper.
• Cover the skillet securely and cook over very low heat for 1 hour.
• Uncover the skillet. Using a fork, remove all the garlic, parsley and scallion pieces to a blender and puree for a few seconds. With the blender still running, pour in all the juices from the skillet and puree until a smooth green sauce is achieved. Taste the sauce and season as desired with salt. Remove the chicken pieces to a serving platter, pour the sauce over them to coat evenly and serve.
