For the Sandwich: Split brioche bun in half with serrated bread knife. Spread 1 tablespoon butter on 1 side of each slice of bread. Toast on griddle.

Add spoonsful of cilantro cream and salsa verde on top of tortilla strips. Top with other half of bun.

Tortilla Strips: Preheat oven to 425°F. Cut tortilla into ½ -inch strips; place on a rimmed baking sheet. Toss with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Spread in a single layer; bake until golden brown and crisp, turning halfway through, 8–10 minutes. Let cool.

Salsa Verde: Fire roast tomatillos on grill. Toss garlic, onions and ½ of the jalapeños in olive oil. Oven roast oiled veggies and fired-roasted tomatillos in oven on a sheet pan until soft. When tomatillos are roasted and veggies are soft, add remaining ingredients and hand purée.

Cilantro Cream: In a small mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, cilantro and lime juice together. Mix thoroughly; season with salt and pepper.
