    • 2-3 serrano chilies, stemmed
    • 1 garlic clove
    • 6 tomatillos husked
    • 1/4 cup onion, chopped
    • 1 cup chicken stock

    • 1/2 cup jack cheese

Instructions

Heat oven to 450 degrees. Spread tortillas on baking sheets and bake for 15 minutes or until dried and toasted. 

Film a medium saucepan with oil and heat on high. Cook serranos and garlic until lightly browned, about 2 minutes. Add tomatillos, onions, stock and cilantro. Season with salt and pepper and cook for 2 minutes or until tomatillos have softened. Place mixture in a blender and puree until smooth. Set aside.
