โIf you decide to make this casserole (and you should!), make Mike's tomatillo sauce first. The casserole is off the charts delicious with other tomatillo sauces (NOT canned, please), but use Mike's tomatillo sauce and you will be in gastronomic nirvana. ALL ofโ โ a cook, 5.0โ
โWow! This was crazy good, on a completely different level from what I'm used to. I've been making enchiladas verde for years but the flavors in this recipe were far superior. I think maybe it's searing the chicken then cooking in beer. Plus the poblanos. I douโ โ a cook, 5.0โ
