I'll bet that would can up nicely.

I don't add the chicken stock when I make it, but I do add freshly squeezed lime juice and corn (usually fresh from the garden, but sometimes frozen). I use this to make chicken enchilada casserole. If I remember, I'll post the recipe for that tomorrow when I'm home. Don't have it with me on the train today.

Now I have a craving ~ I love this stuff over eggs and potatoes! Adding tomatillos to my grocery list.

2 serranos might be mighty potent for most folks ... just sayin'
