I really enjoyed this one. I'm not into real spicy stuff, so I cut down on the Anaheim and it turned out great. Made this with the mexican rice recipe which complimented this nicely!

This was pretty good. I roasted a jalapeno along with the other peppers and added it to the dish. The skins of the peppers didn't exactly "slip right off" even though I allowed them to steam in a paper bag for a few minutes after roasting. The peeling process took some effort. And although I browned the chicken breast chunks and then removed them from the pan to keep them from over cooking, and put them back in with the cilantro, they still came out dry and tough. Next time, I'll use thighs instead. Otherwise, we really liked this. I think it could have used more heat, maybe some cayenne or an un-roasted, chopped jalapeno would do the trick. I will definitely make it again. Thanks, Suzanne!

All of my four kids, plus my husband ate this and enjoyed it! Have made it twice and used whatever combination of peppers I have on hand. We like dark chicken and therefore used thighs. Very good.

I've always wanted to make something with tomatillos, and with all the great reviews, this is what I tried. I loved all of the fresh ingredients, but took a lot of time to prepare. This dish had good flavor, but didn't stand out as something I had to make again.

I found all of the fresh ingredients at the farmers market and wanted something different to try. I pulsed the tomatillos in the food processor instead of dicing them and used a chopped medium yellow onion instead of green onions. I also added about another cup of broth so it would be saucy enough to serve over rice. My DH loved it, I do not like peppers, but the chicken was good, the grown kids also loved it. It was labor intensive roasting the peppers and cooking the chicken.

My oh my, was this delicious! Simply perfect dish! Smells great, looks pretty and tastes so good you'll thank yourself for making this! I used a variety of peppers, poblano, jalapeno, and yellow and orange bell peppers. I almost took a short cut and was just going to chop and saute them, but I'm so glad I adhered to the recipe and roasted them first, which didn't require much more effort. The skins slipped off easily, and I think roasting the peppers contributed depth of flavor. I didn't bother with the green onion, as I found the regular onion sufficient. Once I combined the sauteed chicken with the pepper mixture I found that simmering that mixture 10-15 minutes was enough to cook the chicken. I believe 25 minutes would have made it overcooked and quite probably dry and chewy. Half the amount of cilantro was perfect for hubs and me, but that is a matter of personal taste buds. For added richness I swirled in a little butter at the end. I served this over white rice with a side of "Black Beans with Bacon," also from this site. I am really surprised that as I write this only 17 other people have reviewed it. I hope this review will encourage more cooks to give this recipe a try!

Having never made anything with tomatillos before, this recipe was very good. I didn't use the Anaheim pepper because they didn't carry them in my grocery store, but it was good with just the poblanos. Other than that I followed the recipe as directed and served it over brown rice. Next time I have tomatillos, I will make this for sure!

We loved this recipe. I think next time I will roast the peppers under the broiler (5 minutes) and then put them in a paper bag to steam for a few minutes. I like the idea of adding black beans and think I will do that next time. I will definately be adding this recipe to my recipe box.

I added 2 jalapenos to this dish - one was roasted, and the other was sauteed. I also used more chicken broth than the recipe called for so we'd have more sauce. Loved how it tasted sweet at first and then the heat came out and rounded out the flavors - definitely add jalapenos to give this recipe some life.

I LOVED this! I'd give it five stars, except I had to make modifications. I used dried cilantro in place of the fresh, a Cubanelle pepper in place of the Anaheims (the store didn't have any), pre-cooked deli fresh diced chicken (which allowed me to skip most of the third step, which drastically cut down cooking time), a pinch of red pepper flakes since I was out of cayenne, and I did add two serrano peppers for an added kick. I served this over white rice, and it was plenty filling. My father even managed to sneak away with the little bit of leftovers I had. I plan on making this again and again, thank you so much, Suzanne!

Thanks for submitting this recipe Suzanne! I made it for dinner last night and my husband loved it! He couldn't stop raving about how great it turned out. I did make a few modifications. I added some additional chicken broth it to give it enough juice to simmer in. I also added some lime to add some additional flavor. I will definitely be adding this to my recipe box.

This is very good! I forgot to make the black beans I wanted - I'll have to remember them next time! My husband and kids don't like them anyway! I do think it'd give this dish the "fill" it needs. I used two very large poblanos and added two serrano peppers. I also seasoned the flour with white pepper and jalapeno powder. I think I may add more broth next time and serve it over rice. As it stands, there wouldn't have been enough juice to flavor up the rice. I roasted the peppers and heated the sauce the night before to allow the flavors to blend better. I was cooking stuff on the stovetop anyway, so keeping an eye on the peppers was easy. I think 25 minutes is too long to roast them, as they were quite cooked when done. Next time I'll use my own method of oiling them up and roasting them on the proprane grill. I also added a splash of fresh-squeezed lime juice before serving also. Very good - thank you!

Very good. Made this one for a dinner party and it was very well received. Only changes I made were with tomatillos - couldn't find them fresh, so I used canned (worked perfectly) and I kept the chicken breasts whole. Gave the dish a quick lime squeeze before serving and served with black beans and white rice.

I made this when I got tomatilloes in my CSA (farm delivery) box and didn't know what to do with them. A great, tasty supper dish! I did add a serrano pepper as suggested, for extra kick. It was tangy and flavorful, the flour coating helped the chicken to retain just a bit of crispness as well as giving the sauce body. I served this with black beans and cornbread. Yum! A keeper. For the peppers: Put charred peppers into a Ziploc and close, allow to cool, and then peel off the skins. This steams the peppers and allows the skins to come off more easily. The oven roasting was great, though if you have a gas stove you can also char them directly on the burner. The roasting adds nice depth to the dish.

Very tasty but not quite as spicy as I expected. I used the tip mentioned by a previous reviewer of putting the roasted peppers in the freezer for a few mins - the skins came off easy peasy. Thanks!

I will definitely be making this one again! I don't know if my produce was "larger" than intended in the recipe, but I needed almost double the chicken broth and a LARGE saucepan. Note to those who have not charred and removed skins from peppers before...allow extra time - as it's not easy (I found out the hard way) but it is definitely worth the effort to get at least SOME of the skins off. (Plus the roasted peppers add an extra dimension to the dish)

This is a very colorful and SPICY dish. I also loved the salsa, which had a thick, yet smooth consistency. Although I enjoy spicy dishes, I think next time I will reduce the amount of chiles or seed them. Thanks!
