Shredded Chicken and Tomatillo Tacos

Here is a Bobby Flay recipe I found a few weeks ago and have since made three times.

Ingredients

6 tomatillos, husked, washed, and grilled until blackened

1 serrano chile, grilled until blackened

Olive oil

1/2 small red onion, coarsely chopped

2 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped

1 cup chopped fresh cilantro

1 lime, juiced

2 tablespoons honey

1 1/2 cups shredded rotisserie chicken

8 blue corn tortillas (I used regular corn tortillas. I hear that Trader Joe's corn tortillas are amazing.)

1 cup crumbled queso fresco (I can't eat this cheese, and even if I could I would probably still use Monterey Jack.)

Directions


Preheat the grill to medium. Add the blackened tomatillos and serrano to a small saute pan and briefly saute in a little olive oil on the grates of the grill.

Place the tomatillos, serrano, onion, garlic, cilantro, lime juice, and honey in a blender and blend until smooth. Place the tomatillo mixture in a large saute pan and place on the grates of the grill. Bring the mixture to a simmer, add the chicken, and heat through.

Place the tortillas on the grill, and grill for 20 seconds on each side. Spoon the chicken mixture into the tortillas and top with a few tablespoons of queso fresco. Fold the tortillas in half serve immediately.

*I did all my grilling in my grill pan on the stove.

P.S. I'm addicted to this song
