Ingredients:

Serving

1 whole chicken, cut into 6 pieces
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tbsp vegetable oil
8 tomatillos, husked and quartered
2 fresh jalapeno peppers, chopped
6 cloves garlic
1/2 bunch cilantro
3 cups chicken stock
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 onion, diced
2 tbsp ground cumin
2 tsp dried oregano
1 bay leaf
1 1/2 lb potatoes, peeled and cubed
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
1/2 cup sour cream, for garnish

Directions:

Season chicken pieces with salt and black pepper on all sides.
Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook chicken, 2 to 3 pieces at a time, until browned on all sides, about 15 minutes total. Set aside.
Place tomatillos, jalepeno peppers, garlic, cilantro, and chicken stock in a blender and puree until smooth. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil over medium-low heat in a Dutch oven. Stir in onion, cook and stir until onion is soft and translucent, about 10 minutes. Stir in cumin, oregano, and bay leaf; cook 1 minute.
Place chicken over onion mixture in the Dutch oven. Pour in tomatillo mixture. Bring to a boil, decrease heat to low and simmer, covered, until the meat is tender and falling off the bone, about 1 hour 15 minutes.
Stir in potatoes and cook, uncovered, until they are easily pierced with a fork, about 35 minutes.
Season with salt and pepper to taste; serve garnished with sour cream.
