This recipe gets major raves every time I make it. My friends eyes light up when I tell them I'm getting ready to make some more Tomatillo soup! It does take over an hour to make, but the results are so worth it, even to a non-cook like myself. Thanks, Holly!

I love this soup! It's kind of like a hot and sour soup. The cilatro and sour cream is a perfect addition.

Oh, how I love this soup!! I agree with the last reviewer, it IS sort of a hot and sour flavor. I normally don't care for soups in general but this soup is so tasty, so easy to make, I don't mind hauling out the blender to make it. Also, its kinda fun picking out tomatillos in the supermarket, makes me feel so, gourmet! Last time I made it I jazzed it up a bit with some orzo pasta. Made it a heartier, main dish. Excellent way to use up my roast chicken leftovers. thanks for sharing it!, Ms Holly!

Wow, I made this recipe last night for dinner, after being given a bunch of fresh tomatillos and chili peppers from my mother-in-law's garden. It was great, much better than expected, and even my small children ate it, and liked it, admittedly with plenty of sour cream. Definitely a recipe I'll make again when I get more tomatillos!

I was really disappointed after the other rave reviews. The soups was a very thin broth with hunks of chicken floating in it. It was not very interesting and I won't make it again.

My husband and I though this soup was very good and my husband usually does not like soup. We love tomatillo's and this is a great recipe to use them in! The sour cream is a must.

Very delicious. Better than I expected. Although it would not be the same without the cilantro and sour cream. If anything, make sure you add the cilantro. I will make this again!
