Instructions for Chicken Verde Burrito

MMMMM----------------------TOMATILLO RELISH--------------------------- 1 lb Tomatillos (remove husks); -rinsed & chopped 1/4 md Onion; chopped 1/2 c Water 1 Jalapeno; stemmed & fine -chop 1/2 c Cilantro leaves; whole, -finely chopped 1/4 ts Salt To make relish: Place the tomatillos, onions and water in a medium-size bowl and microwave, uncovered, on HIGH for 5 minutes. Stir and microwave, uncovered, on HIGH for 5 minutes more, until the onion is soft. Remove and let stand 14 minutes to cool completely. Stir in the jalapeno, cilantro, and salt. Serve right away or store in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. For the burritos: Stir together the onion, garlic, and relish in a medium bowl. Microwave, uncovered, on HIGH for 2 minutes, or until the onion wilts. Stir in the chicken strips and microwave, uncovered, on HIGH for 5 minutes, or until heated through. Spread the chicken mixture in the middle of the tortillas. Top with the sour cream and cilantro and fold envelope style. Microwave, uncovered, on HIGH for 1 inute, or until the tortillas are warm to the touch. Serve right away. Risas note: I did not do the final step in the microwave. I preheated the GF Grill, when hot, I put the burritos on it and closed the top. I let it cook for a moment, then I flipped the burritos, and let them cook for another minute. I unplugged. I served it with white rice, cole slaw, salsa and sour cream. NOTES : If fresh tomatillos are not available, substitute either fresh green tomatoes or canned tomatillos. Fresh green tomatoes can be substituted directly for the tomatillos with no other changes in the recipe. Since canned tomatillos are already softened, microwave the onion and water together for 5 minutes in Step 1. Add the tomatillos and microwave for the remaining 5 minutes in Step 2.
