Directions
- In a small bowl, mix cumin, kosher salt and canola oil. Rub the chicken with cumin oil mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 15 minutes.
- Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Place the chicken and grill for about 2 minutes per side. Cover the grill or grill pan.
- Lower the heat to medium, and cook for about 4 to 6 minutes, or until internal temperature of the thickest part of the chicken reaches 165 degrees.
- In a blender, add the tomatillos, white onion, garlic, cilantro, chicken broth, salt, and sugar.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a 2-qt saucepan over medium high heat. Add the tomatillo sauce and cook for 5 to 7 minutes, or until sauce changes color has darkened to a deeper green.
- Place the chicken on a platter, top with tomatillo sauce, and Jalapeno. Top with sour cream.
