Ingredients
Directions
Special equipment:
four 12-inch wooden skewers- Preheat an outdoor grill to medium. Soak four 12-inch wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
- Whisk the lime juice, 2 cloves garlic and chipotle together in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken, toss well to coat, and set aside for 20 minutes to marinate.
- Meanwhile, put the tomatillos in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 7 minutes and then drain. Puree the jalapeno, onion, the remaining 1 clove garlic and 1 teaspoon salt in a blender until smooth. Add the cooked tomatillos and cilantro sprigs and puree until smooth.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and thread onto the soaked skewers. Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the chicken, flipping often, until cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. Serve with the salsa verde and warm tortillas.
