Ingredients

　　1 pound tomatillos, husked

　　3 serrano chiles, stemmed

　　2 whole skinless chicken breasts (about 2 1/2 pounds), halved

　　1 tablespoon olive oil

　　1 medium onion, diced

　　3 cloves garlic, finely chopped

Broil chicken until browned, about 9 minutes. Turn; broil other side 9 minutes. Heat oil in a large saucepan over low heat; cook onion and garlic, stirring occasionally, until soft and golden, about 5 minutes. Add pureed tomatillos and chiles; simmer uncovered, 2 minutes. Add cilantro and 1 teaspoon salt. Gently place chicken in sauce. Simmer, covered, until meat is cooked through, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with pumpkin seeds and cilantro.
