TOMATILLO AND CHICKEN SOUP | ALLRECIPES
Tomatillos are small green vegetables with a papery husk. They are part of the nightshade family, but they do not taste like tomatoes. They have a tangy, slightly sour taste that pairs wonderfully with almost any variety of pepper, and they have much smaller seeds. This soup recipe relies on their unique flavor while adding some more familiar elements, like canned green chiles, cilantro, chicken broth, and leftover chicken.

BRAISED CHICKEN THIGHS WITH TOMATILLOS RECIPE - NYT COOKING
Part stew, part braise, these chicken thighs become fall-apart tender in under an hour without the aid of any fancy appliances. Simmered in a tangy broth made from tomatillos and garlic, the sauce becomes delightfully thick and chicken-y, perfect for garnishing with lime, radishes and plenty of cilantro. It's terrific as is, served with tortillas for dipping, but a can of rinsed hominy, beans or cooked rice adds some nice heft.
