Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350° F/175° C. Pat the chicken breasts dry and sprinkle on chili powder until well coated. Place chicken in the prepared 9×13 pan and bake in the preheated oven for about 20-30 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool for a few minutes, then shred with a fork.

If you use frozen tomatillos, slice each in half and allow some of the juice to drain off, then place face down on the lined baking sheet. Place under broiler until charred, about 8 to 10 minutes. If using whole fresh tomatillos, some will crack and release juice, and that's ok. Add half of the roasted tomatillos and juice to the blender jar.

Blend until there are no chunks left, then pour it into the 6-quart pot. Repeat with the remaining tomatillos, onions, cilantro chilies, and garlic.
