I was expecting the sauce to be spicy since it had jalapeno bits in it, but I guess I did a good job of getting all of the seeds out. The seeds you see in the picture are from the tomatillo.
Ingredients:
2 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/8 teaspoon pepper
2 garlic cloves, minced
4 (6-ounce) skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
1/2 cup fat-free, less-sodium chicken broth
1/2 pound tomatillos
1/4 cup cilantro leaves
1/4 cup chopped green onions
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
Cooking Spray
Directions:
Prepare grill to medium-high heat.
Combine the first 4 ingredients in a large zip-top plastic bag. Add chicken to bag; seal and let stand for 15 minutes.
Discard husks and stems from tomatillos. Combine tomatillos and broth in a small saucepan over medium-high heat; cover and cook 8 minutes. Drain and cool slightly. Combine tomatillos, cilantro, and next 6 ingredients (through jalapeno) in a food processor; process until smooth.
Remove chicken from bag; discard marinade. Sprinkle chicken evenly with 1/4 teaspoon salt. Place on a grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 6 minutes on each side or until chicken is done. Serve with tomatillo sauce.
