Instructions
Heat the oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Sear the chicken until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes.

Add the stock, stirring to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
Add the roasted chiles, garlic, tomatillos, chopped cilantro, and cumin. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low. Return the chicken and any juices that have collected on the plate to the pan, cover, and simmer, turning once, until the chicken is opaque throughout, 20 to 30 minutes.
Transfer the chicken to a platter.
Add the lime juice to the sauce remaining, stir to combine; season with salt and pepper.
Pour the sauce over the chicken and garnish with the whole cilantro leaves.
Serve with tortillas on the side.
