Instructions
On a small baking sheet, spread out the tomatillos, garlic cloves, and serrano chiles. Roast under a hot broiler until charred and soft, turning once during cooking, about 5 minutes per side. Set the oven to 400 degrees.
Once the vegetables have cooled slightly, blend with the cilantro and just enough water to bring it together (1/4 cup or so). Taste and season with salt.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the tomatillo salsa and the cream.
Put the chicken in a baking dish that holds everything snugly in one layer and cover with the tomatillo-cream sauce.
Bake the chicken until just cooked through, 15-30 minutes depending on the size of the pieces.
