The ingredients for Pan Seared Chicken with Roasted Tomatillo Salsa are:

12 oz fresh tomatillos
3 tsp extra-virgin olive oil
1 medium onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves, chopped
1/2 cup cilantro leaves
1 small jalapeno, seeded and minced
1 tbsp fresh lime juice
4 (6-ounce) boneless, skinless chicken breasts
Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Here is how you make Pan Seared Chicken with Roasted Tomatillo Salsa:

Remove and discard papery skin from tomatillos; rinse and pat dry. Heat the broiler. Place tomatillos on a foil-lined broiler pan; broil for 8 to 10 minutes, turning halfway through, until softened and blackened on all sides. Transer tomatillos and their juices to a blender or food processor. In a medium nonstick skillet, heat 2 teaspoons of the oil over medium heat. Add onion and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, about 5 minutes. Transfer to the blender or food processor with the tomatillos and add cilantro, jalapeno, and limejuice. Pulse for 1 minute, until ingredients form a rough puree. Lightly pound each chicken breast to an even 1/2-inch thickness; season lightly with salt and pepper. In a large heavy skillet, heat remaining 1 teaspoon oil over high heat until hot but not smoking. Add chicken breasts, reduce the heat to medium-high, and cook until lightly browned and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Transer chicken to a cutting board. Transfer tomatillo salsa to the hot skillet and cooked over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, for about 1 minute, until salsa has a darker, thicker color and texture. Remove from the heat. Slice chicken breasts on the diagonal into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Place 1/4 cup of the salsa on each of 4 plates, arrange chicken slices on top, and top with additional salsa. Serve warm.Number of Servings: 4Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user AIMEIGH.
