Pour chicken broth into a large soup pot and bring to a slow rolling boil. Add onion, smashed garlic, and one jalapeño, then add the chicken and cook for 15 minutes or until cooked through. Remove and shred.

Step 3

Place the tomatillos, poblanos, and jalapeño in a large cast iron skillet and transfer to the oven. Broil for 8-10 minutes, rotating until the tomatillos begin to char all over then remove from the oven

Add the green salsa from the blender to the cast iron skillet. Simmer on medium heat until it becomes a deep green, for about 8 minutes, stirring occasionally.
