I have been craving tomatillos for the longest time. Well, I don't know if I can actually say I was craving them. Can you crave something you've never tasted? I've been reading recipes that call for tomatillos, watching chefs add them to salsas and sauces, and I've been drawn to the things like bees to honey...but I have never been able to find them in Panama. Until...I went to Riba Smith and lo and behold...tomatillos! I couldn't believe it. So I bought a bunch, not knowing what I would do with them, and my sister Michelle suggested I make Rachel Ray's (or Retchel as Michelle calls her) Tilapia with Tomatillos. I used corvina in my recipe and it was delish. Rachel suggests a filled avocado but I served mine with white rice and it was perfect because it soaked up all the delicious tomatillo sauce. If you ever find tomatillos in Panama, get some and make this recipe. It's easy, and so delicious! I'm definitely adding it to my regular routine. Thanks for the suggestion, Michelle!
