This was unbelievably good! I followed the suggestions and used chicken thighs and served with rice. Next time, I would double the quantity of the sauce. (tomatillos/onion/jalapenos etc..) It was not very spicy, so if you like spicy, add more jalapeno. yum

DH and I just finished this and we both LOVED it! I roasted the tomatilloes under the broiler, added a couple of minced cloves of garlic at the end of sauteeing the onions, and used a little honey instead of the sugar. I served it over a scoop of Spanish rice w/ lime zest and garnished it with a dollop of freshly made guacamole with tortilla scoops on the side. Wow. Thanks Janice!

Awesome. I didn't modify the recipe one bit...though I did use chicken breasts rather than thighs. The meat remained moist and the sauce was not overly spicy. I served this with salad and corn tortillas. I'll be making this again for sure!

Made this to use my tomatillos from the garden and even though I didn't have enough it was great! I'm going to make this again tonight. Thanks for posting.

I needed to do something with the tomatillos that I had grown but never cooked. This recipe looked too simple to be all that good, but it was fabulous! Unfortunately I can't help myself and I have to make alterations, but I don't think they were necessary. I added about a 1/2 tsp cumin to the onion mixture and I added a couple of garlic cloves before the chicken. The flavor is surprisingly complex for being so simple. Thanks for posting!
