Tomatillo Salsa

Makes 2 cups
Britta Britta

A great accompaniment for black bean or chicken enchiladas as well as fish tacos.

ingredients

  • 2 jalapeno peppers
  • 1 pound tomatillos, husks removed
  • 2 tablespoons chopped Vidalia or other sweet onion
  • 2 garlic cloves
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
  • 1 tsp. cumin
  • 3/4 teaspoon sea salt

directions

  • 1

    Cut 1/4 inch off stem ends of peppers; discard stem ends. Using the tip of a paring knife, carefully remove and discard membranes and seeds, leaving peppers intact.

  • 2

    Heat skillet over medium heat. Add peppers and tomatillos. Cook 15 minutes, turning frequently (peppers and tomatillos will become speckled with black marks). Add garlic cloves in the last 5 minutes.

  • 3

    Transfer contents of skillet to a food processor, and puree until smooth. Add the onion, and pulse 5 times or until blended. Pour pepper mixture into a medium bowl. Stir in cumin, cilantro, lime juice, and salt.
