Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 lb boneless skinless chicken breast; cut into half inch cubes.and set aside
3 jalapeno peppers
1 pasilla chili
1 anaheim chili
1 medium onion, peeled and coursely chopped
8 medium tomatillos, fresh husk removed and washed
1/2 bunch cilantro, fresh rinsed and finely chopped
2 can(s) ortega diced green chilis 4 ozs
1 pkg chicken taco seasoning, lowrey's
2 Tbsp olive oil
2 Tbsp cumin, powder (to your taste; a little can go a long way)
1 Tbsp garlic salt
1/4 c herbox instant chicken bullion (powder not the cubes)
2-3 Tbsp cornstarch
1/2 -3/4 c water for cornstarch
3-5 c water

Steps:

  • 1. Clean and deseed all the peppers ( when I do the jalapenos I use a spoon to make sure I get all the seeds and the ribs,Or leave some ribs behind if you want more heat)
  • 2. Chop the onion, tomatillos, and cilantro.
  • 3. Cube the chicken into 1/2 inch cubes
  • 4. Over a med high heat in a 2 -4 quart pot heat the oil. Add the chicken and sprinkle it with the taco seasoning and 1 TBSP of bullion. Cook just until a light brown color.
  • 5. Add the remaining ingredients stirring to combine. Begin to add your water until you cover the vegetables.
  • 6. Add garlic salt cumin and more bullion until you have your desired taste. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer until all contents are tender. Aprox. 30 - 40 mins
  • 7. mix 1/2 cup of water to the cornstarch until smooth(no lumps)
  • 8. While gently stirring, slowly add the cornstarch and water mixture to the simmering mixture. You want the sauce to be the consistency of a light gravy. If needed make more cornstarch water.

I've made this chili verde several times and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The flavors are amazing and the chicken is always so tender.

This recipe was a disaster. The chicken was tough and the sauce was bland. I would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I thought this chili verde was just okay. It wasn't as flavorful as I was hoping for. I think I would have liked it better if I had used a spicier salsa.

I'm not a big fan of spicy food, but this chili verde was mild enough for me to enjoy. The flavors were great and the chicken was so tender.

This was an easy and delicious recipe. I made it in my slow cooker and it was perfect for a weeknight meal.
