Description

20 minute fresh, homemade salsa verde. Super easy, simple, and just 6 ingredients for authentic Mexican flavor!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb tomatillos, husks removed, rinsed and patted dry with paper towel
  • 2 jalapeño peppers, halved, seeds removed as desired for heat (I left about half in)
  • 1/2 medium white onion, cut in half
  • 3 garlic cloves, peeled
  • 1/2 cup fresh cilantro (leaves and stems)
  • 2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon coarse salt (I used very little as I tend to eat salsa with salty tortilla chips)


Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 425°F. Prepare a baking sheet with foil.
  2. Place tomatillos, jalapeños, onion halves, and garlic cloves on the prepared baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes until tomatillos start to brown.
  3. In a blender or food processor, blend roasted ingredients with cilantro and lime juice until smooth. Add salt as desired. Serve immediately or chill in the fridge in a sealed container up to one week.
