Chicken &amp;amp; tomatillo empanadas. (Food network DDD)

HalfPint · Answer

Chile Verde is a delicious use of tomatillos. Make it with chicken if pork is not your thing.

PS A quick skim shows the tomatillo usage question has been asked and answered here other times. Maybe have a look at those for more ideas.

Some of the links I referred to in my note.
Includes recipes from Diana Kennedy, Rick Bayless, Aaron Sanchez.

Pickle them, use in dishes with various proteins (chicken, crab, whole fish), gazpacho, tacos.
And/or give some away to friends, food banks that take whole raw produce.
See Bon APPÉTIT, which has many tomatillo recipes, and various Mexican cooking sites.
