12 Reviews of Pollo Con Salsa Verde (Chicken With Green Sauce)

Made a great and tasty chicken dish! I have to admit...when I took my first few bites, I was on the fence as to how I felt about it. I'd never had a verde style chicken before and the green verde sauce kinda gave a tart aftertaste that I wasn't sure I liked. The method of cooking the chicken really added to the recipe and won me over. The chicken was super moist and very flavorful. I seasoned the chicken before sauteeing it with pepper and garli garni. I used probably 6 cloves of garlic (or more!) and doubled the jalapeno's. I never added the sour cream. I'm sure it would have been good but it certainly wasn't necessary nor missed. Maybe the sour cream would have helped with the initial tartness? Nonetheless..really great...grew on me and my husband adored it. A winner!

    I will make this recipe again and again. My family was thrilled, it was the perfect mix of flavors and spices. My son offered to eat it all for us, and that is unusual for a Mexican meal. Thank you for such a great new addition to my cookbooks. I would give this more than 5 if I could.

    This is an awesome recipe. I was looking for a quick and easy way to prepare chile verde with chicken without all the fuss of tomotillas. This was super easy and super delicious. Will make again and again. Served with spanish rich and refried beans. Thanks for sharing. Made for ZWT3

    This was great! I could only find medium green salsa and so left out the jalpeno and used fat free sour cream to cut down the fat/calories. I shredded the chicken and served in warm tortillas with lettuce and cheese. Loved by all! Thanks for posting

    fantastic chicken dish...i felt like i was cheating by not making the salsa myself but didnt care later cuz it came out so good! i added a 10oz can of some ortega diced green chilis to give the sauce some chunk and i used 4 cloves of roasted garlic...i combined the broth, salsa, green chilies & seasonings and didnt bother to take the chicken out of the pan, just poured the broth mixture around the pan. also, i didnt have sour cream but had some crema fresca left from fajita night so a dolup of that went on each piece...loved it!
