Steps:
- Prepare a grill over medium heat.
- Put the tomatillos, onion and garlic on the grill (put the garlic on a metal skewer or small piece of aluminum foil to keep it from slipping through the grates.) Grill the vegetables, removing them as they are ready, until the tomatillos, turning as needed, are soft but not bursting, the onion is tender and the garlic skin is charred, 5 to 15 minutes. Cool slightly.
- Peel the garlic and put in a blender with the tomatillos, onion, cilantro, chipotle chile and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Blend until well incorporated but slightly chunky.

Steps:
- Preheat an outdoor grill to medium. Soak four 12-inch wooden skewers in water for at least 30 minutes.
- Whisk the lime juice, 2 cloves garlic and chipotle together in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add the chicken, toss well to coat, and set aside for 20 minutes to marinate.
- Meanwhile, put the tomatillos in a medium saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil and cook until tender, about 7 minutes and then drain. Puree the jalapeno, onion, the remaining 1 clove garlic and 1 teaspoon salt in a blender until smooth. Add the cooked tomatillos and cilantro sprigs and puree until smooth.
- Remove the chicken from the marinade and thread onto the soaked skewers. Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill the chicken, flipping often, until cooked through, 4 to 6 minutes. Serve with the salsa verde and warm tortillas.
GRILLED CHICKEN WITH TOMATILLO SALSA
Grill tomatillos and chicken together with jalapeños, onions, and garlic in a foil packet for quick, easy preparation and to let the chicken soak in the flavours of the fresh ingredients. Be careful when opening the foil to check the doneness of the ingredients, as there will be a lot of steam. If you don't have a grill or grill pan, you can broil the chicken and the tomatillo mixture (no need to wrap it in foil). You can make the tomatillo salsa up to 3 days ahead.

Steps:
- Smashed Kidney Beans: Heat oil in a saucepan over medium-high. Add onion; cook until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add coriander, chipotle in adobo, and 1/2 teaspoon salt; cook 30 seconds more. Add cinnamon, beans with liquid, and broth; bring to a boil and cook, stirring occasionally, until reduced and thickened slightly, about 5 minutes more. Remove from heat.
- Smash beans with a fork or potato masher until creamy and spreadable, leaving some intact. Let cool until warm but no longer hot before serving (if beans are too hot, tostada shells will become soft), or refrigerate in an airtight container up to 5 days (return to room temperature before serving). (Makes 2 1/4 cups.)
- Tostadas: Heat a large skillet (preferably cast iron) over high. Add tomatillos, onion, garlic, and jalapenos in a single layer and cook, turning a few times, until blistered in places, about 5 minutes. Let cool slightly, then transfer to a blender with 1 cup packed cilantro leaves and stems, broth, lime juice, and 3/4 teaspoon salt. Puree until smooth.
- Season chicken with salt and pepper. Return skillet to medium-high heat; swirl in oil. Add chicken in a single layer and cook, flipping once, until golden brown in places but not cooked through, about 3 minutes. Add 2 cups salsa (reserve the rest); reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, turning chicken a few times, until just cooked through and salsa has thickened and darkened slightly, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from heat; let cool 10 minutes. Using 2 forks, shred chicken in skillet into bite-size pieces, tossing to evenly coat.
- Spread 2 tablespoons smashed beans onto each tostada shell. Top with shredded-chicken mixture, avocado, crema, cabbage, remaining salsa, and more cilantro; serve with lime wedges.

Steps:
- 1. In a large bowl, combine the chicken thighs and oil. Toss to coat the thighs evenly. Transfer the thighs to a platter and sprinkle evenly on all sides with the cumin rub. Set aside at room temperature.
- 2. Prepare a charcoal or gas grill for indirect grilling over medium heat; the temperature inside the grill should be 350°-375°F (180°-190°C). If using charcoal, bank the lit coals on either side of the grill bed, leaving a strip in the center without heat, and place a drip pan in the center. If using gas, preheat the burners, then turn off 1 or more of the burners to create a cooler zone. Brush and oil the grill grate.
- 3. To make the salsa, place the tomatillos and chile over the direct-heat area of the grill. (You'll probably need a grill screen for the chile or you'll lose it through the grate.) Cook, turning as needed, until well charred on all sides, about 3 minutes. Transfer the tomatillos and chile to a blender, add the lime juice and oil, and pulse until combined but still chunky. Transfer to a bowl, fold in the cilantro, and season with salt. You should have about 2 cups (16 fl oz/500 ml). (The salsa can be made up to 1 week in advance and refrigerated. Bring to room temperature before serving.)
- 4. Place the thighs, meaty side down, over the indirect-heat area of the grill. Cook, turning once, until the thighs are nicely grill-marked on both sides and firm to the touch and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh away from bone registers 170°F (77°C), 10-15 minutes on each side.
- 5. Transfer the thighs to a platter and let rest for 10 minutes. Serve at once with the tomatillo salsa.
