How spicy is the green hatch? We have young children and need it to be mild.

This is a good recipe for a green chile cream sauce which I think is excellent, but you don’t see that often in restaurants for some reason. My Brother’s Place in Cruces had a fantastic version of this. My only adds to your recipe would be to include fresh diced white onion within a layer and on top, plus add a couple pinches of cumin spice into the blender with the sauce. Blue corn tortillas are best if you can find them. It may be obvious but you can blend the sauces straight out of the jar, then I heat them in a saucepan placing the chicken in the sauce. Cheers…
