Remove chicken skin. Pour oil into 10 to 12 inch frying pan over medium-high heat.

Add chicken and brown, turning as needed, 8 to 12 minutes.

Add tomatillos, onion, chilies, and garlic.

Cover and simmer, turning chicken occasionally, until meat is no longer pink at thigh bone (cut to test), about 30 minutes.

With a slotted spoon, transfer chicken to a platter; keep warm.

Boil sauce, uncovered, over high heat until most of the liquid evaporates, 6 to 8 minutes.

Pour sauce over chicken. Sprinkle with cilantro.

Add salt and pepper to taste.
