Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Place the poblano halves on a baking sheet and roast until they begin to shrivel, about 20 minutes. Transfer the roasted poblanos to a food processor and puree until smooth.
- Heat the butter in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion, reduce the heat to medium, and cook, stirring often, until the onion is soft and golden, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the onion to a plate and set aside to cool.
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to a simmer. Add the tomatillos and blanch them until they turn vibrant in color and the center of the largest one is easily pierced with a fork, about 5 minutes. Drain the tomatillos in a fine-mesh sieve then run them under cold water to cool. Transfer the blanched tomatillos to the food processor bowl with the poblano puree, add the cooled onion, pears, green chiles, cilantro, and white pepper and process until smooth.
- Bring the vegetable broth to a simmer in a saucepan. Add the poblano-tomatillo puree, cream and sour cream and reduce the heat to medium-low. Gently simmer the sauce, stirring often, until light and creamy, 45 minutes to 1 hour.
- Use an immersion blender to blend until smooth (or blend the sauce in batches using a standard blender). The sauce can be refrigerated for up to 4 days or frozen for up to 4 months.
TOMATO AND GREEN CHILI QUESADILLAS OR SOFT TACOS
Steps:
- To make quesadillas, preheat the oven to 400°F. Arrange the tomatoes, chilies, and optional cilantro on the entire surface of 2 tortillas. Sprinkle with the cheese, and cover with the remaining tortillas. Arrange the quesadillas on a nonstick baking sheet and bake until the tortillas become lightly golden and crisp on the outside, 12 to 15 minutes; or grill them on a nonstick griddle on both sides until golden. Cut each quesadilla into 4 equal wedges, allowing 2 wedges per serving, and eat out of hand.
- To make soft tacos, arrange a single layer of tomato slices over one half of each tortilla, and sprinkle with the chilies, cheese, and optional cilantro. Arrange on individual plates. Heat each serving briefly in the microwave (about 1 minute) or preheated 400°F oven (about 3 minutes) to melt the cheese, then fold over. Eat at once with a knife and fork or cut into 2 wedges and eat out of hand.

Steps:
- For the chicken filling: Heat the oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Add the tomatillos, garlic, jalapeno, onions and 1 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 15 minutes. Add the canned chiles, cumin and 3/4 cup water and bring to a boil. Season with salt and pepper. Reduce the heat, cover and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Transfer the sauce to a blender (or use an immersion blender) and puree until smooth. (When blending hot liquid, first let it cool for 5 minutes or so, then transfer it to a blender, filling only halfway. Put the lid on, leaving one corner open. Cover the lid with a kitchen towel to catch splatters, and pulse until smooth.)
- Pour the sauce back into the saucepan (if using a blender) and add the chicken, corn and beans and warm through. Taste and season with additional salt and pepper if needed.
- To serve, toast the tortillas over an open flame until just slightly charred (alternatively, wrap in a damp paper towel and microwave for 1 minute to heat through and make pliable). Add about 3 tablespoons of the chicken filling to each tortilla, top with a drizzle of crema, sprinkle with queso fresco and some sliced radishes.
