Ingredients

Directions

Step #1 In a saucepan, a clove of garlic, one quarter onion, mix chicken breast with chicken broth, & 2 tsps salt.
Step #2 Bring to a boil, & then boil for 20 mins.
Step #3 Reserve broth, set chicken aside to cool, & discard onion & garlic.
Step #4 When cool enough to handle, shred chicken with your hands.
Step #5 Place tomatillos & serrano chiles in a pot with water, enough to cover them.
Step #6 Bring to boil, & continue boiling until tomatillos turn a different shade of green (from bright green to a dull, army green).
Step #7 Strain tomatillos & chiles, & place this in a mixer with another quarter piece of onion, 1 clove garlic, & a pinch of salt.
Step #8 Pour in reserved chicken broth, so that liquid just covers the veggies in the mixer by about an inch.
Step #9 Blend all ingredients until they are completely pureed.
Step #10 Pour salsa in a medium saucepan, & bring to a low boil.
Step #11 Pour oil in a frying pan, & allow to get very hot.
Step #12 Slightly fry tortillas one by one in hot oil, setting each on a paper towel afterwards to soak some of the oil.
Step #13 Finally, dip slightly fried tortillas in low-boiling green salsa, until tortillas become soft again.
Step #14 Place on plates, 3 per person.
Step #15 Fill or top tortillas with shredded chicken, then extra green sauce.
Step #16 Top with crumbled cheese, sliced onion, & sliced cilantro.
