Method
Step 1 of 6
Place the chicken in a large saucepan and cover with cold water. Bring to the boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until cooked through.
Step 2 of 6
Meanwhile, make the salsa verde. Cook the tomatillos, chillies and garlic under a preheated hot grill for 5-10 minutes, turning frequently, until softened and charred. Leave to cool slightly, then remove the blackened skin.
Step 3 of 6
Remove the chicken from the pan, reserving the cooking liquid. Shred the meat with a fork, discarding the bone.
Step 4 of 6
Place the salsa verde vegetables in a food processor with the coriander and a little of the reserved cooking liquid and whizz to a sauce. Season and set aside.
Step 5 of 6
Mix together the shredded chicken, chorizo and crème fraîche in a bowl, then season.
Step 6 of 6
Divide the chicken mixture among the tortillas, then roll up and place seam-side down in a baking dish. Scatter over the cheese and bake in the oven for 20 minutes until heated through and the cheese has melted. Drizzle over the salsa verde and serve.
