We have been on a salsa verde kick for the past few months ever since our friends Patrick and Laura brought some homemade salsa on a weekend trip we took together in September. I've been a big fan of the regular salsa chicken and figured I could try making it with salsa verde. I decided to add a little lime juice and cilantro for a little extra something and it turned out just perfectly. I think I even like it better than the regular salsa chicken and it is almost as easy!
