I wish we got tomatillos more frequently at my supermarkets, it rare to actually find them! Next time I will try this though.

Tomatillos are amazingly prolific aren’t they? This sounds so delish!

Boy are you a lucky duck to harvest tomatillos……your dish looks amazing. Did you grow cilantro also?
Brenda @ a farmgirl's dabbles
I used to cook with tomatillos alot, and just haven’t for a couple years, don’t ask me why. Thanks for the delicious reminder – this dish looks awesome!!
Brian @ A Thought For Food
You know how I adore tomatillos! It’s so funny… I actually saw them in the store today and was thinking of getting some. But I didn’t. Now I’m kicking myself. This looks rockin’!

Super easy delicious fast dinner. I used canned chilies because thatโs all I had. Served over steamed cauliflower rice. The whole family enjoyed it!
Carrie
Lovely! I really love tomatillos, and they sound wonderful combined with shrimp.
Wendy@chezchloe
Tomatillos are a super addition to the tomato plant and I find them somewhat more forgiving. Along the same lines, you might enjoy (and probably already know) next year are Physalis or husk tomatoes. I found them pretty easy to grow but they especially flourished under cover or in a greenhouse.
This looks like a great meal any day of the week.

Would love to try this…….however, your instructions say “add chilies and half of the chilis and cook until they soften…..” is this right? It looks delish and easy…..would like to make it this weekend. Thanks.
