1/2 c. chicken broth
1/4 c. fresh lime juice
1/4 c. olive oil
2 tbsp. minced fresh jalapeno peppers
2 tbsp. minced fresh cilantro
1 1/2 tsp. minced garlic
4 chicken breast halves, cut in half crosswise

2 med. size fresh jalapeno peppers, halved, cored and seeded
1 c. chicken broth
1 tbsp. flour
1 tbsp. fresh chopped cilantro
1 tsp. salt

Mix chicken broth, lime juice, olive oil, jalapeno peppers, cilantro, minced garlic together in plastic storage bag. Add chicken and close bag, squeezing out as much air as you can. Marinate in refrigerator 4-8 hours, turning bag once.

Stir flour and remaining broth until smooth. Stir into tomatillo mixture. Add cilantro and salt and simmer 4-5 minutes over medium low heat, stirring occasionally until mixture is slightly thickened. Puree in blender or food processor.
