Grilled Chicken with Tomatillo Sauce

What you need: 
  • 6 tomatillos
  • 1 serrano
  • 1/2 small red onion
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • olive oil
  • Chicken breasts, or thighs 

What to do:
Fire up your grill
Husk and wash the tomatillos, when the grill is hot place the tomatillos and serrano directly on the grill 
(We are trying to achieve a blackened out side, so pretty much just burn them)
Season the chicken with what ever you like, 
I used garlic powder, salt, Chilli powder, paprika, cyanne and  a little bit of olive oil


Place the chicken on the grill, just until cook through
When the chicken is done, shred or cube the chicken, and set aside



For the Tomatillo sauce,
 place all of the ingredients in a blender 
(except  for the chicken)


Blend on high until everything is completely incorporated 
Next, pour the tomatillo mixture in a sauce pan and place it on the stove to get hot 


Add the shredded/diced chicken and warm through 
completely

Spoon in to a bowl or serve on a bed of lettuce. Anyway you eat it, enjoy!
