Chicken Tikka Masala Recipe

This is a quick and easy recipe that is perfect for busy weeknights.  One of my roommates in college was Indian, and she introduced me to Indian cooking. The only problem is traditional Indian cooking is time consuming, and usually ends up getting most of the dishes in the kitchen dirt!. So this is an Indian recipe with some short cuts, like using canned tomatoes with green chilies, that ends up being fast enough for a weeknight meal.

Chicken with Tomatillos Recipe

chicken and tomatillos with rice

This is a nice chicken stew type recipe using tomatillos.  Around here we only see tomatillos in the stores for a few weeks, so it is nice to make something using them when they are available.  I got this recipe from my mom, although she usually makes it with pork and I like it with chicken.  It is quick and easy, and can be make in about half an hour.
