A vibrant and flavorful take on the classic Chicken Verde, perfect for tacos or burrito bowls.
Place the chicken in a soup pot and cover with chicken broth.
Using broth instead of water enhances the flavor of the chicken.
Add half of the onion, halved, and two garlic cloves to the pot.
Halving the onion and garlic allows them to infuse the broth with flavor.
Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the chicken is tender, about 30 minutes.
Simmering gently ensures the chicken stays moist and flavorful.
Remove the chicken from the pot and let it cool slightly. Shred the chicken using two forks.
Shredding the chicken while it's warm makes the process easier.
In a blender, combine the tomatillos, green chilies, remaining onion, and garlic. Blend until smooth.
Blending the ingredients creates a smooth and consistent verde sauce.
Pour the blended mixture into the pot and bring to a simmer.
Simmering the sauce allows the flavors to meld together.
Add the shredded chicken, cumin, and chopped cilantro to the pot. Stir to combine.
Adding the chicken back to the pot ensures it absorbs the flavors of the sauce.
Simmer uncovered until the sauce thickens to your liking, about 20 minutes.
Stir occasionally to prevent the sauce from sticking to the pot.
Serve the chicken verde in tacos with your favorite toppings, such as cheese, sour cream, and guacamole.
Warm the tortillas before serving for the best texture and flavor.
