Cooking Instructions:
1. For chicken: Preheat the oven to broil and line a rimmed baking sheet with aluminum foil. Place tomatillos, jalapenos, onion and garlic on a prepared baking sheet. Drizzle with 1 tablespoon oil and toss to coat. Broil, tossing vegetables occasionally, until dark golden brown and tender, about 10-14 minutes.
2. In a blender, puree roasted vegetables, cilantro and lime juice until smooth, about 1 minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat remaining oil. Add tomatillo mixture and chicken and cook, stirring occasionally until chicken is fully heated through, about 3-5 minutes.
4. For assembly: Combine sour cream, cumin and lime juice in a small bowl. Place tortilla chips on a large rimmed baking sheet. Top with cheese, and broil until melted, about 3-5 minutes. Top with chicken mixture, avocados, olives, jalapenos, radishes and cilantro. Dollop with sour cream mixture and serve.
